Experience Timeless Elegance with the Patek Philippe 5227G Calatrava

The Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G

In 1932, the Calatrava collection redefined what a dress watch should look like. Its timeless design has attracted a loyal fan base and collectors who passionately pursue them.

This 5227g calatrava builds on this legacy by increasing the case size to 39mm. It also features a hinged case back, making it an Officer’s Case.

Case

In 1932 the Calatrava became Patek Philippe’s iconic dress watch. It’s simple design might seem boring to some, but it has everything a watch needs to be great: modestly sized at 39mm, classic dial with two-tone gold hands and framed date window. It also has the distinction of being one of only a few watches to be double signed. This reference 5227G was introduced in 2013 as a special version of the standard Calatrava with a unique Officer’s Style case that has a hinged sapphire caseback.

This unworn watch comes complete with all original boxes and papers. The white gold case measures 39mm in diameter and has a black lacquered dial with golden hands. It is powered by the automatic self-winding movement Caliber 324 S C with 29 jewels and a power reserve of 45 hours. The sapphire crystal case back is protected by an invisibly-hinged dust cover. The watch is mounted on a shiny black alligator strap with square scales and hand-stitched center. It will fit up to a 7.5 inch wrist. The watch is covered by our two-year warranty. This is an extremely rare and desirable reference, especially for collectors of Patek Philippe dress watches. It is one of only a few Officers Caseback Calatravas that Patek has ever produced and it is arguably the most elegant.
