The Patek Philippe Calatrava is one of the most iconic watch collections in the watch industry.
Introduced in 2004, the Patek ref. 5196P-001 represents the modern pinnacle of the Calatrava line. Crafted in solid platinum, this elegant watch features the breguet numerals.
The 37mm case is charmingly thin at eight millimeters, making it comfortable for various wrist sizes. The polished details of the unique case, including the flat bezel, elongated lugs, and simple crown, highlight the Calatrava's heritage from the 1930s.
The two-tone silver dial follows the case's ethos with a simple small seconds, time-only configuration, yet elevated by meticulous details. The multi-sector design, applied gold Breguet numerals, and indented sub-dial for running seconds create a captivating contrast. The watch is powered by the manually wound Patek Philippe caliber 215PS with a 44-hour power reserve.
