BASELWORLD 2013 - CONSOLIDATION OF THE EMPIRES
ON THE COVER
Ref. 5227 by Patek Philippe
This new reference in the Calatrava collection comes in a 39mm diameter case in 18-carat gold and has a face of the most refined sobriety. The lacquered dial in cream is punctuated only by the three hands, sleek hour markers and a minute scale, plus the date at 3 o’clock and the Patek Philippe inscription. The slender 9.24mm thick case conceals a tiny pusher for opening the hinged officer-style case back, behind which the Patek Philippe self-winding calibre 324 SC can be admired through a transparent sapphire crystal case back.
