After securing a controlling interest in the firm, Jean and Charles Henri Stern decided to enlist the help of an English designer named David Penney to create a simple watch that would come in at a lower price point and appeal to the firm’s clientele. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the principles espoused by the Bauhaus school and its minimalist, function-first philosophy, Penney conceived the Calatrava, taking its name from the Spanish military order established in the 12th century which had become the symbol of Patek Philippe. Since its debut in 1932, the Calatrava has become a byword for a simple, time-only dress watch — even from brands other than Patek itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThis particular model, a Reference 3758J, features a 35mm yellow gold snapback case with a sapphire crystal, signed crown,  'hobnail' finished bezel, and a gorgeous champagne ‘Sigma’ dial with printed 'Roman' indices bearing a ‘Tiffany \u0026amp; Co’, secondary signature and a blued steel handset.
