It has been worn by many notable people throughout the years including politicians, dignitaries & royalty. 01:10 Patek Philippe History Patek Philippe was founded in 1839 and named after two of its founders; Antoine Norbert de Patek, and Jean Adrien Philippe. The company quickly began establishing its reputation of greatness, with many notable achievements in its first 100 years. Following the successes of the Calatrava models thus far, Patek Philippe introduced the Ref. 2526 in 1953. This marks the very first entry to the Calatrava family with an automatic movement. Although the Calatrava had seen many variations on the exact designs of the Calatrava line by the early ‘70s, perhaps the most famous Calatrava was soon to be introduced in 1973, the Ref. 3520, with it’s iconic “hobnail” bezel design. 02:53 Notable Calatrava Designs 06:00 Why is the Calatrava so Iconic? This watch could be considered the “ultimate” dress watch. The majority of the Calatrava collection possesses a clean, simple design. The attention to simple elegance means the Calatrava typically looks great with pretty much anything. The thing about timelessly designed watches is their ability to be passed down through generations. In other words, part of the iconography of Calatrava is its heirloom status. And, another reason for the iconic status is the fact it’s so often faked. “Fake”, we are mainly referring to the counterfeits out there. 08:45 What Makes it So Expensive? Perhaps one of the biggest factors pushing up the price is the level of exclusivity. Patek Philippe only produces around 60,000 watches annually and focuses on slow, considered manufacture instead of matching the volume of other watchmakers. The use of some of the highest quality and rare materials is another factor that influences not only the waiting time but the overall cost of a Calatrava. 10:52 So, Is It Worth It? We consider the Calatrava to be worth it: → If you value the heritage of the brand, → If you value the in-house movement, → And if you want it to become an heirloom piece → If you value versatility Calatrava is not worth it if: → You simply like the look → If you’re looking for a watch with several functions 12:48 Outfit Rundown |
