This here Patek Philippe Calatrava 6119R-001, it’s somethin’ else, ain’t it? I seen a lot of fancy things in my time, but this one, it takes the cake. They call it a “dress watch.” Well, I reckon it’s fit for a king, or maybe even a queen!
This Calatrava, it’s got a special name. Heard someone callin’ it a “flagship timepiece.” Sounds important, right? Like them ships with the big flags, sailin’ the high seas. This one sure is a fancy ship, if you ask me.
They say it’s named after the Patek Philippe logo, the Calatrava Cross. A red cross with them pointy things, which someone calls a “fleur-de-lis”. It all sounds very fancy, like it came from another world. It is the emblem of some knights.
Now, this watch, it ain’t just pretty. It’s got all them little parts inside, workin’ like a charm. They say the case is 39mm wide and only 8.08mm high. Don’t ask me what that means, exactly, but it sure sounds precise. And it can go underwater, too, up to 30 meters! Not that I’d be takin’ a swim with this on my wrist. You’d have to be crazy to do that with something so valuable!
- Diameter: 39mm
- Height: 8.08mm
- Water-resistant to 30m
This Patek Philippe 6119R, it’s got this special pattern on it, somethin’ called “Clous de Paris.” Sounds French, don’t it? It’s like a bunch of tiny little hobnails all lined up. Makes it look real special, like somethin’ you’d see in a museum. Someone says it makes the watch very distinctive. I do not know what it means, but it sounds good.
And the price? Well, hold onto your hats, folks. They say this Calatrava 6119R-001 costs a fortune! I heard someone say it’s over $33,000! Can you believe that? For a watch! You could buy a whole herd of cows for that kind of money. Or a new truck! Or even a little house! But then again it is very popular. Many people like it.
This here Patek 6119R, they say it’s the newest one of its kind. They been makin’ these Calatrava watches for a long time, it seems. It is the latest men’s dress watch. The first one was called the Ref. 96, whatever that means. Seems like folks just love these things.
I heard that Patek Philippe also has some other models, like Aquanaut and Nautilus. They are all luxury watches. They released new models in April this year.
And the back of this watch, it ain’t just plain. You can see all the insides, all them gears and wheels turnin’. They call it a “sapphire crystal case back.” Sounds fancy, don’t it? Like somethin’ out of a fairy tale.
This Patek Philippe watch, it’s got 164 parts inside. That’s a lot of tiny little pieces! And they all gotta work together, just like the folks in our town. If one little thing goes wrong, the whole thing stops workin’. But I reckon they know what they’re doin’ over there at Patek Philippe. They wouldn’t be chargin’ so much if these watches weren’t top-notch.
- Diameter: 31mm
- Thickness: 2.55 mm
- Number of parts: 164
I seen some folks wearin’ fancy watches before. Some of them big and clunky, some of them small and delicate. This Patek Philippe Calatrava 6119R, it’s just right. Not too big, not too small. Just perfect for a special occasion. Or maybe even every day, if you’re rich enough!
Well, I reckon that’s all I got to say about this here watch. It’s a real beauty, ain’t it? A little piece of art, right there on your wrist. If you ever get a chance to see one in person, you take a good look. It’s somethin’ special, that’s for sure.
You can buy this watch from authorized Patek Philippe watch retailers. You will get manufacturer warranty and 5-yr Tourneau warranty.
I still think it is very expensive, but I guess it is worth that much money. It is a Patek Philippe, after all.
