I don’t think there’s historically ever been a Calatrava that stayed consistently above retail.
What about the venerable 5522?

Let us not forget its greatness. One time while wearing my 5522 on a hike I ran out of water. I thought, “uh oh”. Then I remembered my 5522 and was immediately relieved. Nobody is going to die of thirst while wearing a watch like that, it’s impossible. Thank you 5522!
