PATEK PHILIPPE
ANNUAL CALENDAR
THE QUEEN OF USEFUL COMPLICATIONS
Introduced in 1996 and patented by Patek
Philippe, the Annual Calendar is the first time-
keeping mechanism that automatically displays
the month, the day of the week, and the correct
date under consideration of months with 30 and
31 days, so it must be adjusted only once a year on
March 1. Its construction represented a formidable
challenge. To eliminate rockers and levers to the
greatest possible extent, Patek Philippe’s engineers
designed an architecture that relies mostly on
wheels and pinions. The caliber 324 S QA LU move-
ment consists of 328 parts (355 for the 324 S IRM
QA LU), whereas a conventional perpetual calen-
dar with a moon-phase display needs only about
280 components. In the meantime, the convenient,
well-organized, and user-friendly Patek Philippe
Annual Calendar is available in various versions
with different sets of displays. They constitute a
collection of timepieces that combine unique
functionality with timeless beauty. The calendar
indications are complemented by an extremely
precise moon-phase display that deviates from the
true lunar cycle by only one day every 122 years.
The self-winding models that incorporate the
caliber 324 S IRM QA LU movement feature a
power-reserve indicator at 12 o’clock.
16 INSTRUCTIONS
winding crown
The winding crown is used to wind the watch
(position 1) and to set the time (position 2).
winding
Your watch has a self-winding movement. The
movements of your wrist set a rotor in motion; this
tensions the mainspring which stores the energy.
Off the wrist, your watch has a power reserve of at
least 35 hours. When it has stopped after depleting
the power reserve, it can be rewound by hand (about
10 clockwise turns of the crown). Please wind the
watch before you put it on. This way, you can avoid
lateral pressure on the winding stem which in the
course of the years could damage the stem tube.
setting the time
To set the time, pull the crown out, and turn it in
either direction. When you turn the hands clock-
wise beyond midnight, the calendar displays will
advance as well. We advise against turning the
hands counterclockwise across midnight because
this would desynchronize the calendar displays;
however, it would not damage the calendar
mechanism.
Caution: Please set the time before you put the watch on.
This prevents lateral pressure on the winding stem. Please
use your fingernails to pull the crown out and turn it gently
between two fingertips.
Never pull out the crown in a humid environment or underwa-
ter: the water resistance of your watch is assured only when
the crown is pushed home.

ANNUAL CALENDAR
note
The date change mechanism is active between
8 p.m. and 2 a.m. whereas the moon phase switches
between 9 and 11 a.m. During these time intervals,
do not use the correction push pieces to adjust the
calendar indications or the moon-phase display.
You can be sure that performing adjustments is
safe if you first set your watch to 6 a.m. as follows;
advance the hands beyond midnight (the date will
change, otherwise, it was 12 noon) and then keep
advancing the hands to 6 a.m.
If your watch has stopped running, rewind it by
hand before performing any corrections or adjust-
ments (about 10 clockwise turns of the crown).
Correction push pieces should be actuated exclu-
sively with the correction stylus that was delivered
with the watch. The use of any other tool could
damage your timepiece.
18 date correction
Proceed as follows to correct the date:
1. MAKE SURE to set the date to the first day of
the month.
2. First, correct the month with the push piece at
2 o’clock as described below.
3. Then, correct the date by repeatedly actuating
the push piece at 4 o’clock until the current
date is displayed.
month correction
To correct the month, actuate the correction push
piece at 2 o’clock as many times as needed to
display the current month.
day of week correction
To correct the day of the week, actuate the push
piece at 10 o’clock as often as needed to display
the correct day.
moon-phase correction
The moon-phase display advances in the morn-
ing. Its mechanism is active between 9 and 11 a.m.
Each time the push piece at 8 o’clock is actuated,
the moon-phase disk will advance by one day.
To begin the correction procedure, advance the
moon-phase disk until a full moon is displayed
in the middle of the aperture. Consult a moon-
phase calendar or visit www.patek.com (click
on Collection Movements-Complications The
moonphase indicator) to find out how many days
have elapsed since the last full moon (including the
day on which you correct the display). To correctly
set the moon-phase display, press the push piece as
many times as the number of days that have elapsed
since the last full moon.

20 TAKING CARE
OF YOUR WATCH
certificate of origin
Your watch is delivered with a certificate of origin
that indicates the movement and case numbers.
The certificate is valid only if it is dated, signed by
an Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer, and com-
pleted with your name. It guarantees the authen-
ticity of your watch and validates your warranty
privileges for a period of two years after the date
of sale. The unique movement and case numbers of
each watch are transcribed into the workshop jour-
nals. With this information, you may have yourself
entered in the Patek Philippe Register of Owners
and will obtain the International Patek Philippe Magazine
free of charge.
patek philippe seal
As an all-encompassing hallmark of
quality, the Patek Philippe Seal applies
to the entire watch, including the
movement, case, dial, hands, pushers,
strap, and clasp as well as to all other
facets that contribute to the precision and aesthetic
perfection of the timepiece. It covers the techni-
cal, functional, and aesthetic factors, but also rate
accuracy, dependability, and customer service
quality. Additionally, it reflects the maker’s know-
how and all other assets needed for the develop-
ment, production, and long-term maintenance of
an extraordinary timekeeping instrument.
