Patek Philippe Calatrava 5524G-001

Calatrava Pilot Travel Time 5524G-001 2023 Box and Papers

The release of Patek Philippe's reference 5524 Travel Time came as a surprise to most observers. The sporty and pilot-inspired design was a move away from the brand's more conservative offerings, particularly considering that Patek Philippe never actually made a dedicated pilot's watch before. Since then, it has become a key part of the Calatrava collection, offering both functionality (in the form of the travel time complication) as well as a unique aesthetic within the brand's product lineup. It's a perfect nod to the brand's history of making fine watches for the jet-setters and society's most vaunted. Handling marks, minor dings or very light scratches that cannot be felt with a fingernail. Sharp bevels and edges. Bracelet may have some very light stretch. No wear to precious metal hallmarks or engravings. Vintage watches may have light patina and light overall wear.
