Patek Philippe Calatrava: A Legacy of Refined Simplicity

Since 1932, the Calatrava has embodied the Bauhaus principle that form follows function. With its balanced proportions, ultra-thin profile, and understated dials, the Calatrava became a blueprint for the modern dress watch. Whether manual-winding or automatic, vintage or contemporary, each reference reflects Patek Philippe's unwavering pursuit of horological purity.
