A Refined Blend of Beauty and Functionality
The Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 4997/200G-001 epitomizes grace and precision, making it an exquisite choice for discerning women. The guilloched midnight blue lacquered dial exudes subtle depth with its concentric wave pattern, coated with multiple layers of transparent lacquer. This remarkable design is complemented by powdered gold hour markers, offering a harmonious blend of artistry and readability. The bezel set with 76 internally flawless Top Wesselton diamonds (~0.52 ct) adds an opulent sparkle, elevating the watch’s elegance.
At the heart of this Calatrava lies the ultra-thin Caliber 240, a self-winding mechanical movement renowned for its reliability and efficiency. With a 22K gold off-center mini-rotor, the movement achieves exceptional thinness at just 2.53mm, offering unparalleled comfort. Featuring 27 jewels and vibrating at 21,600 semi-oscillations per hour (3 Hz), the movement ensures smooth operation and precise timekeeping. The 48-hour power reserve adds practicality to this luxurious timepiece.
Case and Dimensions
The 35mm white gold case introduces a slightly larger diameter compared to its predecessors, perfectly balancing modernity and tradition. The round case shape, coupled with a slim 7.4mm profile, enhances its wearability. The sapphire crystal exhibition back offers a captivating view of the intricately designed movement, celebrating the craftsmanship of Patek Philippe.
Dial and Strap Harmony
The guilloched lacquered dial, paired with a brushed calfskin strap, creates a unified aesthetic. The midnight blue strap, with its satinated finish matching the dial, adds sophistication while ensuring durability. A secure clasp completes this refined look, making it an ideal choice for both formal and casual settings.
