The Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 6119 quality replica watch is the latest version of the popular men’s dress watch. Despite having an enviable customer base and a reputation for creating watches of unquestionable quality, it served a relatively niche market and failed to gain mass appeal.
The dial is neat and organized, with elegantly faceted gold bars for the hours, gold toffee-style hands and tiny golden dots for the minutes. The addition of a “small second” display at 6 o’clock is a relative indulgence of what would otherwise prove to be a simple example. The slender one-piece lugs of just 31mm and the minimalist flat gold-tone bezel have provided the blueprint and benchmark for generations of sophisticated dress watches.
Case
At 39mm, the case of the Exact Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 6119 replica watch is modestly sized by today’s standards, albeit comparatively large when contrasted with the 1932 model, the Ref. 96 with its 30mm case. Despite its undoubted presence on the wrist, its slender proportions (just 8.1mm thick) ensure this new incarnation remains the epitome of elegance.
The integrated lugs are long and curvaceous, clearly deriving inspiration from the original Ref. 96. To ensure widespread appeal, the model is available in either 18K rose gold (Ref. 6119R-001) or 18K white gold (Ref. 6119G-001) providing devotees with a difficult choice to make.
Painstakingly guillochéd, the resultant myriad of diamond-polished pyramid-shaped squares plays with every available chink of light to dramatic effect. In addition to being aesthetically striking.
The Patek Philippe Calatrava Replica watches online features a ‘box shaped’ sapphire crystal to the front, affording sight of two subtly different dial variants which are determined by the case material selected. To the rear, an exhibition caseback shows off the wonderfully decorated, new ‘30-255 PS’ movement.
Dial
The rose gold model, Ref. 6119R-001, has a “silver pattern” dial. Its muted tones provide the perfect backdrop for easy readability. In contrast, the white gold version of the Ref. 6119G-001 features a charcoal grey dial with a “vertical satin finish” that can be rendered in grey or dark black canvas depending on the angle of the light.
Display contains sublime proportions. Located around the perimeter of the case is an elongated minute track that appears every 5 minutes and is dotted with tiny golden dots. The Patek Philippe Replica Watches China applied “obus” hour markers are another respect for the original Ref. 96. Diamond-polished and faceted, their style perfectly complements the knurled bezel and draws the eye toward the center of the dial.
The hour and minute hands are toffee-style and very elegant. A small seconds indicator has been added at the traditional 6 o’clock position to complete the look. Housed in a circular frame and divided into quadrants, this represents a playful crepe on avant-garde design.
Movement
With much dial refinement evident, it would be easy to overlook the fact that Patek has chosen the Ref. 6119 to usher in a spectacular new movement. With its crystal-clear exhibition caseback, the wearer can view the Caliber ’30 255 PS’ and become immersed in the rarefied world of Haute Horlogerie.
The finishes are exemplary, with delicate Côtes de Genève and chamfers on each bridge. The building is dominated by two bridges under which there are two golden mainspring barrels. Containing two barrels working in parallel, it provides an impressive total power reserve of 65 hours. The system greatly improves rate stability and simplifies precise rate adjustment. The Patek Philippe grade 1 replica watch hand-wound movement 30-255 PS offers impressive precision with a maximum deviation of -3/+2 seconds over 24 hours.
Strap
For the Patek Philippe Calatrava 1:1 replica watches swiss, the Maison has stuck with tradition, opting for highly polished alligator leather straps. A deep natural brown item accompanies the rose gold case, while the white gold model has been paired with a black strap.
From a practical stance, the introduction of the new Caliber 30-255 movement is of equal significance. Superior to its predecessors, such as the 215 PS, it can be viewed via the exhibition caseback. It’s a stunning example of refined finishing that delivers a significant increase in the power reserve, thanks to its twin barrels.
These additions to the collection certainly add a new dimension to an already diverse portfolio and will help to ensure that the Expensive Calatrava replica watch remains the benchmark for dress watches for the foreseeable future.
