Description

The Patek Philippe 6119R-001 is an elegant and refined timepiece that exemplifies the Swiss watchmaker’s commitment to craftsmanship, precision, and timeless design. As part of the esteemed Calatrava collection, this watch boasts a classic aesthetic with modern enhancements, making it a perfect choice for discerning watch enthusiasts.

Introduced in 1932, the Calatrava collection has become synonymous with understated elegance, characterized by its round case, clean dial, and signature hobnail bezel. The 6119R-001 model upholds this tradition while introducing subtle updates to appeal to contemporary tastes.

The 39mm round case, crafted from 18k rose gold, offers a slightly larger size compared to earlier Calatrava models. This increase in size ensures improved legibility and a more modern wrist presence without compromising the watch’s timeless appeal. The case is also water-resistant up to 30 meters (100 feet), providing protection from everyday splashes and brief submersions.

The dial of the 6119R-001 features a vertical satin-finished silver tone that complements the rose gold case beautifully. The dial is adorned with faceted, applied rose gold hour markers and a set of sleek Dauphine hands, further enhancing the watch’s elegance. A small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock adds a touch of functionality without detracting from the minimalist aesthetic.

At the heart of the Patek Philippe 6119R-001 is the new in-house Caliber 30-255 PS, a manually wound movement with a 65-hour power reserve. This movement showcases Patek Philippe’s technical prowess, offering superb accuracy and reliability. The sapphire crystal case back provides a view of the finely decorated movement, featuring Côtes de Genève striping and circular graining.

The 6119R-001 is fitted with a hand-stitched, matte dark brown alligator leather strap, complete with a rose gold prong buckle. The strap’s rich color harmonizes with the rose gold case, ensuring a cohesive and sophisticated appearance.
