The Patek Philippe Calatrava ref. 5022 was in production from 1997 until 2003. It was offered in all of the brand’s traditional precious metals, such as yellow gold, pink gold, white gold, and platinum, with the latter regarded as the rarest. A classic Calatrava case profile measuring a lithe 33.5mm in diameter ensures the watch will sit comfortably on most wrists. And if you must wear a suit at the office, a platinum 5022 like the present example will seamlessly fit under any sleeve or cuff in your closet while still offering an impressive degree of wrist presence.

The present ref. 5022 in platinum is in excellent overall condition. The lugs show off crisp, deep hallmarks, and the black Breguet numerals contrast beautifully against the flawless white dial. The watch is further accompanied by its original Certificate of Origin dated to Christmas Eve, 1999.
