Launched in 2005, Ref. 4936 was Patek Philippe's first annual calendar for ladies. This very attractive model marked the firm's foray into complicated lady's watches, which has been well received by the most discerning female connoisseurs of haute horlogerie. Since the release of the reference, fewer than five examples have been offered at auction. The present lot is in virtually untouched condition and is offered on behalf of the original owner.
