In a design characterized by sleek, sharp lines and a round case, the Patek Philippe Calatrava stands as a timeless and iconic creation that has endured through generations. Drawing inspiration from the archetypal reference 96 of the 1930s (the inaugural Calatrava model) the case architecture remains a testament to enduring elegance. The present watch, reference 5297G, emerges as one of the most precious and rare offerings to grace the market. Crafted in luxurious white gold, this timepiece is adorned with 68 diamonds, totaling approximately 0.77 carats, meticulously selected for their internal flawlessness and graded between D to G in color. The certificate of origin accompanying the watch attests to the exceptional quality of these diamonds. The watch is not only remarkably preserved but also uniquely precious, with diamonds on the bezel mirrored on the glossy back dial featuring 8 brilliant-cut diamonds and 3 baguettes. Adding to its exclusivity, the dial bears the double signature of the historic American boutique, Tiffany & Co. Tiffany & Co. remains the only retailer worldwide whose name is allowed on a Patek Philippe dial, rendering any Tiffany-signed timepiece exceedingly sought after. Accompanied by its full set of accessories, this watch is undeniably a collector’s piece, embodying the marriage of unparalleled craftsmanship and prestigious design—a true testament to the enduring legacy of the Patek Philippe Calatrava.
