Why We Love it

Why We Love It

Patek Philippe is one of the few brands that knows how to execute simple perfection.

While the Calatrava has certainly evolved over the near century its been in existence, the spirit of the design has endured. Unmistakable and iconic, its rich history provides the vintage enthusiast with a wide variety of metals, sizes, and elegant details to obsess over. This particular example of a reference 438 stands out with its desirable 'Breguet' numerals, a steel case, and an extract from Patek Philippe.

The watch is undoubtedly on the smaller size by todays standards, but as collectors start to change direction and seek out smaller, more classically sized watches, this Calatrava presents exceptional value relative to its larger counterparts.

It epitomizes what Patek Philippe is most known for - understated elegance and delicate finishing. 

The Story

Patek Philippe.

Founded in 1839, Patek Philippe is one of the oldest watch manufacturers in the world with an uninterrupted watchmaking history. Few luxury brands in the world carry the gravitas of their name, and for good reason.  The firm's commitment to excellence in horological manufacture is unflinching, and their track record of innovation in design without peer.  They continue to lead the industry, and even their fiercest competitors have nothing but the utmost respect for the company.

Vintage Patek Philippe is for many the ultimate goal of timepiece collecting, and for a certain type, the only vintage timepieces they collect.  Whichever way you look at it, there is no questioning the elegance of design, superlative manufacture of their movements, and that finding these characteristics on a vintage piece that also tells a story is some next level shit.
