Anyone who knows about finest watchmaking, can recognize the masterly ability of Patek Philippe to fit almost impossible complications in a thin case like the collection Complications. Every single complication integrated to its machinery carries the purest spirit of fine watchmaking and Swiss tradition. Both for its aesthetic details that make this timepiece a jewel on wrist as for its precise features this collection is special and unique. This spectacular timepiece with a discrete but respectful 40mm case, features the function of the weekly calendar, a semi-integrated mechanism displaying the current week number, in addition to the day and date. A particularly useful feature for a modern businessman. Even as it might seem a simple complication, it is a true master piece. The date is indicated in the date window at 3 o'clock, the day is indicated by the short hand with flat red end, and the week and month are indicated by a similar but longer hand around the outer edge of the dial.
One of the most elegant families within the catalogue of Patek Philippe is the Calatrava series. This timepiece case style is a definite throwback to the Calatrava Ref. 2512A from 1955. Patek Philippe released a new dress watch in stainless steel for the first time since the 1970s. Currently the only stainless steel dress watch in the Calatrava collection, the Calatrava Weekly Calendar 5212A is the odd one out. The use of steel, usually reserved for the luxury sports Nautilus or Aquanaut models, brings a refreshing, slightly more casual feel to this model. The Ref. 5212A is a mix of modern technology, classic style, and a couple of unique touches that help it stand out from other Patek Philippe models. Patek Philippe combined the engineering inside and the more powerful, vintage-inspired design on the outside,- it's a perfect recipe for a memorable watch. Then, when added a stainless steel case - a rarity for Patek Philippe to begin with - it becomes a serious contender for one of the best calendar watches of the year.
Reserved for the most refined taste in luxury watches, this Patek Philippe Calatrava Complications Weekly Calendar 5212A is a must-have piece to add in the collection.
