Frequently Asked Questions About Patek Philippe Complications

In horology, a "complication" is any function on a watch that does more than tell the hours, minutes, and seconds. For Patek Philippe, the Complications collection includes useful functions for everyday life, such as Annual Calendars, World Time displays, chronographs, and dual time zones. These are distinct from their "Grand Complications," which feature multiple highly complex mechanisms.
A Patek Philippe Annual Calendar automatically manages the varying lengths of the months (30 or 31 days). It only needs to be manually corrected once a year, on March 1st, as it doesn't account for the shorter length of February or leap years (which a Perpetual Calendar does).
The price of a Patek Philippe Complications watch varies greatly based on the specific complications, materials (gold or platinum), rarity, and condition. Our collection shows prices ranging from USD $36,000 to USD $738,000, but this can fluctuate.
Popular references in the Complications collection include the 5146 (Annual Calendar with moon phase and power reserve), 5205 (Annual Calendar with moon phase in a modern case), 5396 (Annual Calendar with a more classic design), and 5905 (Annual Calendar Chronograph).
Patek Philippe watches, particularly those with complications, are renowned for holding their value exceptionally well and often appreciating over time. Their limited production, exceptional craftsmanship, and brand prestige make them highly sought after by collectors.
