In 2005, Patek Philippe launched the first annual calendar wristwatch for ladies, the Ref. 4936, and the following year, introduced the complementary Ref. 4937, featuring additional diamond setting, larger Breguet numerals, and an attractively curved Patek Philippe signature to the dial.

These stunning models marked the firm's foray into complicated lady's watches, which have been well received by the most discerning female connoisseurs of haute horlogerie.
