Beautiful watch, classy and exquisite
Actually my wife pointed out to me and I agree with her 100%
Will love to see it in flesh , this is the piece I’m missing

i don’t usually like busy watches, but something is special about this one. In my view the seconds ring is totally unnecessary and that is what makes it look very busy.

A beautiful watch from PP. Not for me, but interesting.

LOVE the strap and case. Love the contrast between hands and dial. The dial itself...maybe too busy. Not loving having to change the date every other month.

Those red-tipped hands for week and day remind me of Polo Sticks.

Nice watch, not sure how the people will see it.

I think it is nicer than the Code 11.59.

The question is : how available will it be?

I think it’s a confused watch. Very busy. Doesn’t appeal to me at all.

The watch is going to be sold out everywhere and stole the show.

It’s a neat looking watch but too busy for my taste.

I normally only like stainless steel sport watches but this one has my interest. I wonder how difficult it will be to get versus a nautilus or aquanaut.

I really like this one. My only reservation is that I hope the dial isn’t too “flat” in appearance. Will have to see it in the metal.

I would like it a lot more as a time only with the same dial, case and hands. As is to me anyways it looks like you gave a 7th grade art student a pencil to draw on a calatrava.

Interesting piece which no doubt will be a big hit in the short and mid term.

Less sure about the long term as I can easily see getting people tired of this design after some time.

Anyway not for me - far too busy and slightly too large at 40mm.

Good that a Calatrava is getting so much attention, nice to move away from the sports for a moment.

Would prefer 38/39 but not sure the script would work smaller

I hope it gains a lot of traction because it will draw even more interest to the brand and will cause chaos online with people not being able to get them.

The funny thing is I have already received a PM asking a similar question due to a post I made yesterday.

Dear sir, since you have a purchase history that allows you to purchase SS Patek for MSRP would you please use that history to buy for me?
