Patek Philippe Calatrava Grey White Gold – 6119G watch review

Patek Philippe Calatrava with its iconic round case has captivated watch lovers since 1932. Designed by English horologist David Penney, it is considered one of the finest symbols of the Patek Philippe style.

Introduced in 2021, the Calatrava 6119G stands as a technical marvel. It features the new caliber 30-255 movement with two parallel mainspring barrels. It shows the precise time with the help of a stop second. The distinctive hobnail “Clous de Paris” bezel adds to the charm of the luxury watch.

Specifications: The white gold case has a diameter of 39 mm. Height is 8.08 mm. It can withstand water up to 30 meters deep. The screw-down crown improves the water resistance. The case back is sapphire crystal. The white gold case set against a dark dial should appeal to a younger generation of watch buyers. The dial has a vertical satin finish and ideal combination with the hobnail bezel.

Dial: It has a superb charcoal gray dial. A sub-dial for seconds at the 6 o’clock position provides additional functionality and makes the dial look pleasing.

The hand wound movement offers a 65-hour power reserve. The design ensures precise timekeeping, with a maximum deviation of -3/+2 seconds within a 24-hour period.

Hour Markers and Hands: The manufacturers have made significant efforts to create highly appealing hour markers and hands. Dauphine-style hour/minute hands and white gold hour markers add to the beauty of the watch.

Strap: Crafted from Alligator leather, the strap boasts a shiny black color, square scales, and a prong buckle.

Design: The watch is a unique blend of tradition and modernity. Both casual and formal occasions suit it well. The watch is comfortable to wear thanks to its sleek design. Calatrava is inspired by the 96-dial first introduced in the 1930s that changed the fortunes of the watchmaker immediately after the Great Depression.

Pricing: At around $30,000, the model may look expensive for an entry-level watch but still gives value for money compared to similar luxury watches from leading brands. The quality of the movement and blending of multiple elements from past models add to the allure of Calatrava. An automatic winding watch may have made the Calatrava more appealing to younger generations, but it may have dulled its design.

Versions: The watch is available in two versions: 6119G-001 set in white gold and 6119R-001 set in rose gold. Patek Philippe Calatrava is indeed a right choice for those who love classic style, technical perfection, and high-quality craftsmanship. The symmetrical and simplistic design is an attraction for those with refined tastes.
