Catalogue Essay
The Patek Philippe Calatrava Pilot Travel Time stands as a significant tribute to pilot watches, merging the brand's iconic elegance with the utilitarian charm of aviation timepieces.

Launched in 2020 in a smaller, luxuriuous white gold 37.5mm case, the ref. 7234G caters to contemporary tastes that increasingly appreciate the elegance and wearability of more restrained dimensions. Boasting a distinctive aesthetic with its blue lacquered dial, luminous Arabic numerals, and a vintage-inspired "box-type" sapphire crystal, its functionality is further enhanced with a dual time zone feature, catering to the needs of globetrotters.

Presented in brand new, unworn condition and carrying the elusive “Tiffany & Co.” signature at 6 o’clock, the present watch is not only fresh-to-market but also the first of its kind to appear at public auction. Consigned from the original owner, the watch is offered complete with all accompanying accessories.

Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499.
