Beautifully captured in this set of images, this gentlemen's white gold Calatrava ref. 5120G is accompanied by its Patek Philippe box, literature booklets, swing tag, and Patek certificate dated October 2008.

This ultra-slim self–winding dress watch with 'Clous de Paris' hobnail bezel represents an evolution of Patek's archetypal Calatrava. Debuted in 2001, it replaced the classic reference 3919.

The fine black Roman numerals stand in relief, in perfect contrast against the white lacquer dial. The 35mm case features straight lugs; a contemporary move away from the typical art-deco design. The sapphire exhibition caseback offers a bird's eye view of the 22ct winding rotor and the exquisite self-winding calibre 240 PS, with Cotes de Geneve finishing to the movement plates. With the closest equivalent in Patek's collection (the ref. 6119) at over £30k, this particular example represents excellent value for money.
