This large version of the famous Patek Philippe Calatrava has a beautiful opaline-silvered dial with applied white gold indexes, a large date and central seconds. The beautifully shaped alpha hands are also particularly attractive. The transparent screw case back allows a view into the mechanical calibre 324 SC with 29 jewels and Geneva seal, Gyromax balance and gold rotor. Reference 5296 was first launched in 2005 in white gold, a year later with a pink gold case. Production was discontinued in 2018.
