| In [[2001]], Patek Philippe introduced a new Calatrava, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5053|Ref. 5053]] in a larger size and including the [[hinged case back]] made popular with Ref. 3960. This became the new definitive Patek Officer's Watch, though the use of [[center seconds]] was not in keeping with the style. The [[complicated]] [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5054|Ref. 5054]] used the same case but added a [[moon phase]] and [[power reserve indicator]], cluttering the dial somewhat. Ref. 5053 was replaced with the up-sized [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5153|Ref. 5153]] in [[2009]], now at 38 mm and still with center seconds but adding a date window. This reference eschews the clean dials of previous officer's watches and includes a striking [[guilloche]] center on all models. A new Ladies Officer, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 7200|Ref. 7200]], was introduced in [[2013]] with screwed bars but with no cover over the fixed sapphire case back. | In [[2001]], Patek Philippe introduced a new Calatrava, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5053|Ref. 5053]] in a larger size and including the [[hinged case back]] made popular with Ref. 3960.

| Patek Philippe has also used the officer's style on a number of non-Calatrava watches in recent years, including many that they classify as [[Patek Philippe Grand Complications|Grand Complications]]. [[ Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar 5159|Ref. 5159]] (and the similar Ref. 5160) include a [[retrograde]] [[perpetual calendar]] with [[moon phase]] as well as a hinged case back over a sapphire window. [[Patek Philippe 5213|Minute Repeater Ref. 5213]] includes a retrograde perpetual calendar and [[minute repeater]], while [[Patek Philippe 5539|Minute Repeater Tourbillon, Ref. 5539]] eliminates the calendar but includes both a [[minute repeater]] and [[tourbillon]]. [[Patek Philippe 5959|Split-Seconds Chronograph, Ref. 5959]] is a high-complication [[split-seconds]] [[mono-pusher]] [[chronograph]]. On the Ladies side, Patek has two "Ladies First" models [[Patek Philippe Ladies First Minute Repeater|Minute Repeater Ref. 7000]] and [[Patek Philippe Ladies First Split-Seconds Chronograph|Split-Seconds Chronograph Ref. 7059]]. | Patek Philippe has also used the officer's style on a number of non-Calatrava watches in recent years, including many that they classify as [[Patek Philippe Grand Complications|Grand Complications]].
