About this watch

Originally an ancient fortress in Spain, Calatrava saw the foundation of the noble brotherhood of religious knights, the Order of Calatrava. Their emblem would be adopted much later by one of Switzerland's most prestigious watchmakers, Patek Philippe, whose flagship collection is now called Calatrava in honour of this historical connection. These watches are among the most elegant and distinguished in the world, displaying a flawless, understated stylishness combined with the avant-guard aesthetic in vogue at the time of the first Calatravas in the early 1930s. This example features a stunning champagne dial with a breathtaking guilloché pattern.

This Patek Philippe has undergone a thorough inspection of water resistance, accuracy, functionality and condition to determine the level of reconditioning required to meet our strict standards. It has also been referenced against technical documents and manufacturer records where available to ensure authenticity and a clean history. All our watches have a 12-month warranty for your peace of mind.
