Patek Philippe Calatrava 5108G | Automatic | White Gold | White Dial

The Definition of Timeless Elegance

The Calatrava — born from Patek Philippe’s 1932 Ref. 96 — is the archetype of the round dress watch: restrained, perfectly balanced, and uncompromising in purpose. Rooted in the Bauhaus maxim that form follows function, the Calatrava remains the standard by which all other dress watches are measured.

The Elements of Perfect Proportions

• Reference Number: 5108G
• Case Diameter and Slim Profile: 37 mm round case with an elegantly restrained silhouette, conceived to sit unobtrusively beneath a cuff.
• Dial Details: Minimalist white dial that radiates clarity, framed by applied hour markers and slender hands for immaculate legibility.
• Case Material: 18k white gold — cool, luminous, and discreetly noble.
• Calibre: Automatic self-winding movement, the silent heart that confers daily reliability and effortless wear.
• Strap: Alligator leather, a tactile complement that completes the classical dress profile.

The Curator’s Insight:

The genius of the Calatrava is not what it adds but what it refuses to add; its beauty is the perfection of restraint. In a world of ornament, this watch speaks with confident understatement.

The Ultimate Symbol of Refined Taste

For the connoisseur who values certainty over trend, the Calatrava 5108G is an unambiguous statement: refinement need not shout to be heard. It communicates sophisticated confidence through proportion, material quality, and an enduring language of design that never dates.
