The Patek Philippe Calatrava, reference 5196G-001, is the purest distillation of what a dress watch should be, a direct descendant of the legendary reference 96 Calatrava of 1932 and a timepiece that has defined horological elegance for generations. This certified pre-owned example from 2017 is offered in excellent condition and comes with its full original set, including box, papers.
Crafted in 18k white gold, the 5196G-001 presents the Calatrava in a beautifully restrained 37mm round case measuring just 7.68mm in height, with the hobnail-patterned caseband and stepped bezel that are the hallmarks of the original Calatrava design. A case that has never needed updating because it was conceived perfectly from the very beginning.
The silver dial is an exercise in absolute refinement, with applied stick and dot hour markers, elegant Dauphine hands, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock providing the only complication this watch will ever need. No date, no clutter, no compromise. Just time, displayed with the quiet authority that only Patek Philippe can deliver at this level.
Powering the watch is the Patek Philippe Calibre 215 PS, a manually wound in-house movement of exceptional quality, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering the intimate daily ritual of winding that connects the wearer to their watch in a way no automatic can replicate. A movement made to be appreciated by those who truly understand watchmaking.
The watch is delivered on its original leather strap with Patek Philippe pin buckle, completing one of the most perfectly resolved packages in fine watchmaking.
Available now at Minty Watches, this certified pre-owned luxury watch is an exceptional opportunity for collectors of pre-owned luxury timepieces in Geneva.
A pre-owned watch in Geneva where less has always meant infinitely more.
