Describing a watch as "timeless" is easy—finding one that truly lives up to the word is something else entirely.

We believe this Calatrava is just that. It perfectly embodies the essence of timeless design and stands as one of the most versatile timepieces you could own. Striking in its simplicity, it showcases all the hallmarks of Patek Philippe’s most iconic collection—elegant, understated, and with just the right touch of boldness.

The yellow gold case remains in outstanding condition, with sharp lines and crisp definition across the 35mm profile. On the reverse, the hexagonal, screw-down caseback features a beautifully hand-engraved “W.D.”—a personal touch that adds character. The silver grene-finish dial is a study in refined craftsmanship, with hand-applied yellow gold hour markers, a distinctive “dot-dot” minute track, and a crosshair small seconds subdial. The non-luminous dauphine hands, also in yellow gold, complete the elegant aesthetic.

This piece is fitted with its original Patek Philippe leather strap and 18k gold buckle—both in excellent condition. It’s powered by the hand-wound Calibre 12-400, a movement known for its precision and reliability. The watch has been fully serviced expert watchmaker and is running beautifully.

This is a classic in every sense—an enduring design from one of the greatest watchmakers in history. Don’t let this opportunity pass you by. Get in touch and make this timeless piece yours.
