Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 6196P-001 – 38mm Platinum with Rose Gold Dial on Brown Alligator Leather Strap

The Patek Philippe Calatrava Ref. 6196P-001 stands as a modern interpretation of one of horology’s most timeless designs — the Calatrava. Rendered in platinum, the case captures a quiet brilliance that is both rare and restrained, embodying the maison’s philosophy of elegance through simplicity.

Its defining feature, the rose gold dial, offers an arresting contrast against the cool sheen of the platinum case. The minimalist layout — with fine applied hour markers, slender dauphine hands, and a small seconds subdial at 6 o’clock — pays homage to Patek Philippe’s 1930s heritage while exuding contemporary clarity. Every element is deliberate, every proportion perfected.

Powered by the self-winding Caliber 215 PS, this Calatrava delivers mechanical precision through one of Patek Philippe’s most reliable and finely finished movements. The sapphire crystal caseback reveals the intricate hand-finishing and Côtes de Genève that define the brand’s artisanal mastery.

A hand-stitched brown alligator leather strap complements the warmth of the dial, completing the watch’s harmonious balance between modern craftsmanship and old-world grace.

This reference embodies the essence of the Calatrava collection — pure, timeless, and unmistakably Patek Philippe.
