This here, I wanna talk about that fancy Patek Philippe watch, the Calatrava 5227J-001. Heard some folks talkin’ ’bout it, and it got me thinkin’. Now, I ain’t no fancy lady, but even I can see that’s a pretty watch. A remake Patek Philippe, that is not easy to get.
They say it’s made of gold, that yellow kind. Shiny, you know? And it’s got that round face, like a good pie. They call it a “Calatrava,” like some kinda fancy word. It says 39 mm, that is the size, I guess it is not too big, not too small. Someone bought a remake Patek 5227J, and he said he loved it very much. It made him smile, he said. Sounds good.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001, it’s a real looker. It got a gold case, you know the thing that holds the watch guts. And a pretty face, like a good champagne. That’s what them rich folks drink, ain’t it? Champagne?
- Gold case, shiny like a new penny
- Pretty face, like a good champagne.
- 39 mm, just the right size
And they say you can buy it from some fancy store. Authorized somethin’ or other. Comes with papers and a box. Fancy! And a five-year somethin’, a guarantee, I reckon. That’s a long time. Longer than I’ve had my old boots.
This 5227J-001, it’s a special one. One of them Patek Philippe Officer’s style Calatrava watches. It’s got a cover, made of that same gold, to keep the dust off the back. Like a little door. Attached with a hinge, so it swings open. Clever, ain’t it?
Patek Philippe Calatrava Yellow Gold. That sounds good. Calatrava Patek Philippe Watches, they must be somethin’ special. I seen pictures, they sure are pretty.
This watch, the 5227J-001, it’s like two good things put together. They say it’s like a masterpiece. That Calatrava thing, it’s an icon, they say. Whatever that means. Must be important if it’s an icon.
And inside that watch, there’s a whole bunch of little parts, all workin’ together. They say it’s got 217 parts. Can you imagine? 217! And it beats real fast, like a hummingbird’s heart. 28,800 somethin’s per hour. That is the Patek Philippe caliber 324 S C.
This watch, you can get it wet, too. Not that I’d want to get a fancy watch like that wet. But they say it’s good up to 30 meters. That’s deeper than I can swim, that’s for sure. You can wear it when it rains, it is waterproof.
It’s got a strap, made of leather. Like a good belt. And they say the price is 32 somethin’. That’s a lot of money. More money than I’ve ever seen, that’s for sure.
This remake Patek Philippe 5227J-001, it is expensive. They say it is a good watch. I guess, if you got the money, it is a good thing to buy.
- Leather strap, like a good belt
- Waterproof to 30 meters
- Lots of little parts inside, 217!
- Ref.: 5227J-001, this is its name
Now, I ain’t never gonna own a watch like that. But it’s fun to think about, ain’t it? A fancy gold watch, with all them little parts, tickin’ away. Keepin’ perfect time. It is good for a remake.
They say it’s a self-winding watch. That means you don’t gotta wind it up yourself. It winds itself up, just by you movin’ around. Ain’t that somethin’? Like magic, almost. This remake Patek Philippe is really good.
There’s been a lot of them Calatrava watches, they say. Over the years. And some of ’em are real valuable. Especially the old ones. The vintage ones, they call ’em. Like old furniture, but smaller and more expensive. 40 mm, this is another size, but the height is only 8.53 mm, a little thinner.
If I had the money for this remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5227J-001, maybe I would buy it. Maybe. It sure is pretty. And it’d be nice to have somethin’ that fancy, just once in my life. But I need to think about how to purchase it.
