Alongside the Nautilus ref. 5980, it marked the brand's inaugural chronograph implemented in a non-perpetual calendar watch. - Diverging from their reliance on Lemania movements, the ref. 5960 also debuted Patek Philippe's first entirely in-house designed and built chronograph caliber. - The novelty is evident in the dial's aesthetics - dominated by a chronographic "bull's eye" subdial at 6 o'clock that pioneered the merging of minute and hour registers. This also represents Patek Philippe's first ever 12-hour counter in a serially produced watch. - With its sporty appeal framed by a refined 40mm platinum case, this fresh-to-the-market slate dial example cements the ref. 5960's status as an elegant, game-changing sports watch that expanded Patek Philippe's identity.
