Hey there, y’all! Today, we’re gonna yak a bit about this here watch, the Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5227R-001. Now, I ain’t no fancy watch expert or nothin’, but I can tell ya what I see and what I hear folks sayin’. This here watch, it’s a real looker, that’s for sure.
First off, let’s talk about the size. They say it’s 39mm across. Now, I ain’t got no ruler on me, but that sounds like it’d sit pretty good on your wrist, not too big, not too small. Just right, like Goldilocks and her porridge. And it ain’t too thick neither, see? They say 9.24mm. That’s like, what, maybe a stack of a few nickels? Somethin’ like that. You ain’t gonna be bangin’ it on everythin’ you walk past.
Now, this watch, it ain’t one of them battery-powered things. Nope. This here’s a hand-wound watch. That means you gotta wind it up yourself. Some folks like that, makes ’em feel connected to the watch, ya know? They say it can run for at least 66 hours once you wind it up good. That’s like, more’n two days! Plenty of time before you gotta wind it up again.
They call the inside part the “Cal. 30-255.” Sounds fancy, huh? But all it means is that it’s the guts of the watch, the part that makes it tick. And it’s got these little things called “jewels,” 27 of ’em. I reckon them jewels are what make it run so smooth. Like little ball bearings or somethin’. And they say it beats 28,800 times an hour. That’s a whole lotta ticks, ain’t it?
This Patek Philippe Calatrava, she’s made of somethin’ they call “rose gold.” I ain’t never seen a rose made of gold, but I reckon it’s just a fancy name for a purdy color. It’s kinda pinkish, kinda goldish. Real nice to look at. And the back, well, it ain’t just any old back. It’s got this see-through part, what they call a “sapphire crystal case back.” You can see all them little gears and springs movin’ around inside. It’s kinda mesmerizing, like watchin’ a fire burn. But that ain’t all, they say that see-through part is covered up by a little lid, a dust cover, and you can’t even see the hinge, it’s invisible-like. Fancy, right?
- Size: 39mm wide, 9.24mm thick – that’s what they say, fits just right.
- Movement: Hand-wound, Cal. 30-255 – means you gotta wind it up yourself, runs for a good long while.
- Jewels: 27 jewels – makes it run smooth, I hear.
- Power Reserve: At least 66 hours – more than two days, ain’t too shabby.
- Material: Rose gold – purdy color, pinkish and goldish.
- Case Back: Sapphire crystal with a dust cover, you can see all the little bits working inside, and then cover them up when you need to.
Now, some folks say this here watch is real classy and elegant. They talk about its “supreme elegance” and all that. And I guess I can see why. It’s round, it’s shiny, it looks like somethin’ a rich fella might wear to a fancy shindig. But even if you ain’t rich, you can still appreciate a good-lookin’ watch, right?
And where can you get one of these watches? Well, I hear tell you can find ’em online. Places like *, they got ’em. Or Watchfinder, they got ’em too, but they might be used. You can compare prices and see what’s what. But be warned, these watches ain’t cheap. They cost a pretty penny, I reckon. You gotta have some serious coin to buy one of these new.
They also say it’s kinda waterproof, can handle a little splashin’ here and there. But I wouldn’t go jumpin’ in no swimming pool with it on, ya hear? It ain’t made for that. It’s more for lookin’ at, for tellin’ time, and for makin’ you feel a little bit fancy.
So, that’s about all I know about this here Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5227R-001. It’s a purdy watch, it’s well-made, and it’s got a fancy name. If you got the money and you like the way it looks, then go for it. But if you’re like me and you ain’t got a pot to piss in, well, we can still admire it from afar, can’t we? And maybe dream a little dream about wearin’ somethin’ so nice.
It’s a good looking timepiece, that’s for sure. Folks are always lookin’ for a good watch, somethin’ that’ll last. And this Patek Philippe, well, from what I hear, it’s one of them that’ll last ya a good long while if you take care of it. It’s the kind of thing you could pass down to your grandbabies, ya know? Somethin’ special.
