Favored by collectors and nicknamed the “Giraffe,” this reference owes its name to the unusually long, slender, and curved lugs, which give the case a strong wrist presence while maintaining harmonious proportions. This example, in pink gold with a salmon dial, belongs to the variant with small seconds at 6, a configuration that enhances the design and symmetry of the dial. The combination of the warm case tone and the refinement of the pink dial gives the watch a discreet yet noticeable character, perfectly consistent with Patek Philippe’s aesthetic philosophy of that era. A rare, captivating, and highly sought-after reference that exemplifies the timeless elegance of the Calatrava line.
