Patek Philippe Watch Calatrava Ref. 96 18k Gold Manual Men's with New Buckle

Product Description

The Patek Philippe Watch Calatrava Ref. 96 in 18k Gold is a remarkable timepiece that has gained recognition as a symbol of the Patek Philippe Calatrava collection. Produced between approximately 1932 and 1970, the Ref. 96 showcases exquisite craftsmanship and timeless design. This particular watch features a K18 (0.750) yellow gold case with the case number 294655. It houses the CAL.#12-120 hand-wound movement, which represents a transition from the original LeCoultre movement to Patek Philippe's in-house movement.

The movement number of this watch is 827317, indicating that it was produced between 1935 and 1940. The movement is in very good condition; however, its accuracy is not guaranteed. Due to the effects of aging, there are stains and discoloration around the dial, but these imperfections add to its overall charm and authenticity. The case exhibits signs of use and scratches. It has a diameter of approximately 30.5mm (excluding the crown) and a lug width of about 18mm.

For the strap, a new Camille Forne lizard leather belt has been fitted. Additionally, the buckle is a new 14mm 18k yellow gold classic type, specifically purchased at Patek Philippe Japan. The product includes only the items shown in the images; no other accessories are included.
