DURING ITS ILLUSTRIOUS HISTORY, the Calatrava. virtually became synonymous with a "slim, elegant dress watch". Given its legacy, the Calatrava is strongly anchored in Patek Philippe's history and while it does not enjoy the catcher of its Nautilus or Aquanaut brethren yet, it would be irresponsible if not outright disrespectful to describe it as an "entry-level model" because the Calatrava models contain everything that defines the Manufacture and makes it so reputable. If anything, the Calatrava is emblematic of the quiet elegance of the brand because the collection is remarkable for their restraint.
