Premium watch brand unveils limited-edition watch to commemorate the occasion
To celebrate the completion of its new production building in Geneva, top Swiss watch brand Patek Philippe created an exclusive signature Calatrava in stainless steel with a unique design that will appeal to watch aficionados.
It is a tradition at Patek Philippe to accompany key events in its corporate history with the launch of limited-edition commemorative watches.
To pay tribute to the commissioning of the new PP6 production building, a flagship of impressive size for the creation, development, and production of Patek Philippe watches, the manufacture reasserted its tradition by developing an exclusive, unusually designed Calatrava explicitly for this event.
This new Ref. 6007A-001 Calatrava instantly stands out with its case and broad cambered bezel in polished steel, a very rare material in Patek Philippe’s collections that is particularly coveted among connoisseurs.
The design of the dial reflects an inimitable and dynamic face. Be it the railway track scale of the hour circle with triangular markers, the pierced baton hands for the hours and minutes that mimic the Ref. 6006 Calatrava
The expressly graphic style emphasizes the technical personality of the dial. At the same time, the gray-blue hue is a signature element accompanied by the subtle circular satin finish that contrasts visibly against the white dial imprints as well as the applied numerals and the white-lacquered hands in white gold with luminous coatings.
The commemorative Ref. 6007A-001 Calatrava comes in a limited edition of 1000 watches with a diameter of 40 mm and a sapphire-crystal caseback specially marked with a Calatrava cross and the ‘New Manufacture 2019’ inscription to recall the year the construction works began for the sprawling production facility.
