The much-awaited Patek Philippe line-up of novelties has been unveiled at Watches and Wonders 2026. See grand complications, 50th-anniversary editions of the Nautilus, a new Cubitus, and refreshed classics, among others. Keep reading below.
Celestial Ref. 6105G-001
Leading the releases is the reference 6105G-001, an astronomical grand complication with six patented innovations. Building on the Celestial line, the watch displays the night sky as seen from Geneva through multiple rotating discs, alongside lunar phases and orbit. For the first time in a Patek Philippe wristwatch, sunrise and sunset times are also indicated, with a correction system allowing adjustment for seasonal time changes. The watch is housed in a 47 mm white-gold case with an integrated composite fabric strap and powered by the automatic 240 C LU CL LCSO movement.
Calatrava Ref. 5322G
Next, the Calatrava 5322G arrives with a 24-hour alarm function with a simplified approach. The timepiece is housed in a 41 mm white gold case decorated with a hobnail pattern and complemented by a gradient lacquered dial in green or blue. It is powered by the automatic AL 30-660 S C calibre and comes with a matching composite strap, along with an additional beige calfskin strap with a nubuck finish.
Cubitus Skeleton Perpetual Calendar Ref. 5840P-001
After last year’s debut of the Cubitus at the W&W fair, Patek Philippe has presented the Cubitus Skeleton Perpetual Calendar Ref. 5840P-001, the first grand complication model in the line. The 45 mm watch is crafted in platinum and features a blue openworked dial with a horizontal line pattern. Inside is a 28-28 Q SQU calibre, a rectangular movement which drives the perpetual calendar and moonphase complications alongside hours and minutes. It is paired with a navy composite fabric strap.
Ref. 5249R-001
Among the more artistic releases is the Ref. 5249R-001 “The Fox and the Crow,” marking the first automaton wristwatch in Patek Philippe’s modern history. Inspired by a 1958 pocket watch designed by Louis Cottier and the fable by Jean de La Fontaine, the watch animates a miniature scene on demand via a pusher. The 43 mm rose gold model features an Officer’s-style case and a brown “Matara” dial with engraved gold foliage decorations. Calibre 31-260 PS HMD AU drives the automaton, retrograde hours and minutes, and decorative small seconds at 6 o’clock, set with a tiny diamond. A shiny chocolate-brown alligator leather strap with square scales completes the piece.
Ref. 7047G
In the chiming category, the Ref. 7047G minute repeater is presented in a 38 mm white gold case with a navy blue dial featuring an embossed carbon-style pattern and orange accents. It is powered by calibre R 27 PS and paired with a navy blue composite fabric strap.
References 5270P
The brand has also updated its perpetual calendar chronograph with four new 5270P references, now presented in a platinum case with a concave bezel and fluted lugs. The dial variations include charcoal grey, blue, green, and red lacquered finishes, each with a black-gradient rim. The 41 mm watches are made in platinum and house the manual-wound CH 29-535 PS Q calibre. The green variation is paired with a shiny alligator leather strap, while the other models come with composite fabric straps.
Ref. 5236P
Patek Philippe has also expanded its perpetual calendar offerings with a new version of the in-line perpetual calendar reference 5236P, featuring a single aperture displaying day, date, and month at 12 o’clock. The updated model comes with a satin-brushed, gradient silvery dial with small seconds and moonphase at 6 o’clock. The automatic 31-260 PS QL calibre runs the watch, and a charcoal grey composite fabric strap completes it.
Other models
The Calatrava line sees several additions, including the Ref. 5227G with an opaline rose “salmon” dial in a 39 mm white gold case, priced at CHF 37,800, and the ladies’ Calatrava reference 7200/50G, available in sandy beige or light blue dial options.
Further additions include the Ref. 5396R annual calendar with moon phase in rose gold with a sandy beige dial, the Ref. 5204G split-seconds chronograph with perpetual calendar in white gold with a navy dial, and the Ref. 4946G annual calendar with moon phase featuring a blue-grey dial. The world time category is represented by the Ref. 7129J, a 36 mm yellow gold model with a hand-guilloché carmine red dial. Patek Philippe has introduced new versions of the Golden Ellipse, Refs. 5738G and 3738/100G, in white gold with olive green dials, available in two sizes – 34.5 x 39.5 mm and 31.1 x 35.6 mm.
Finally, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Nautilus, Patek Philippe has introduced three limited-edition time-only models powered by the ultra-thin calibre 240. These include two 41 mm white gold versions (Refs. 5810/1G-001 and 5810G-001) and a 38 mm platinum version (5610/1P-001), produced in limited quantities ranging from 1,000 to 2,000 pieces. Complementing these is the Ref. 958G-001 Nautilus pocket watch, a first for the collection. Housed in a 50.7 mm white gold case, this 100-piece limited edition features an eight-day hand-wound movement and can be converted into a desk clock.
