Patek Philippe Calatrava
Not every timepiece from the world’s greatest watchmaker fits neatly into the mold of an overarching theme or collection.
While we love a simple Calatrava, a sporty Aquanaut, or a complicated perpetual calendar as much as the next guy, the oddball, more overlooked and usually limited-production, shaped watches made by the maison in second half of the 20th century are often some of the most innovative and charming in the brand’s oeuvre.
Take this piece for example. Hailing from the 1980s, this Reference 3814A features a 35mm stainless steel case with a manually wound, Calibre 12-400 movement ticking within. This piece flaunts a pencil handset with applique faceted indexes, a subsidiary seconds register, and hashed minute track outbound.
There’s nothing wrong with a classic Calatrava if what you’re after is a handsome, reliable dress watch. But for those in search of something a bit…different, this piece is absolutely worth looking at.
