This here watch, the Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011, they say it’s somethin’ else. Official flagship store, fancy words, huh? Sounds like somethin’ only rich folks can get their hands on. I seen pictures, it’s shiny, got that black face, they call it ebony. Sounds like a tree or somethin’. This watch, it ain’t for the likes of us, I reckon.
They say it’s an investment. What does that even mean? You put money in, you get somethin’ back, right? But a watch? Keeps time, sure, but so does that old clock on the wall. Cost more than my whole house, this Patek Philippe thing. Gotta be careful, they say, it ain’t for everyday wear. Well, shoot, what’s the point then? Just to look at?
Heard some folks talkin’, sayin’ you gotta wait a long time to get one. Eight years, maybe ten for another one of their watches, the Nautilus. Ten years! I might not even be around in ten years! For a watch! And this Calatrava 6007G-011, maybe a year, maybe more. What you gonna do for that time without it? Seems silly if you ask me.
- Wait for a year or more
- Pay a lot of money
- Too fancy to wear every day
- Made of white gold
White gold, they call it. Gold is gold, ain’t it? This one’s white. Don’t make no sense. And 40 mm, what’s that? Some kinda measurement. They say it means somethin’ about the size. They like to use those fancy words in the official flagship store. It has some kinda shapes on it. Like a puzzle or somethin’. They call it geometric. Big word for somethin’ simple, I reckon.
They say it’s all made in one place, this Patek Philippe company. Some place called Geneva. Must be far away. They broke ground, like plantin’ seeds, but for a building, back in 2015. That’s a long time ago. To put everything together, they said. All the little bits and pieces that make this Calatrava 6007G-011 watch work. Expensive bits and pieces, I bet.
I seen car parts, cost a lot too, but you need those to make the car go. What’s this watch gonna make go? Time? Time goes on its own, don’t need no fancy watch for that. They say full manufacturer warranty. I don’t even know what it means. But it sounds important. It is like a promise, I guess.
Now, this Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s got numbers on it, but they ain’t like regular numbers. All fancy-lookin’. And that strap, they say it’s special too. Black, like the face. Ebony black. Matches, I suppose. Costs more than my whole outfit, that strap probably does.
They say this Patek Philippe is the best of the best. Haute horlogerie, they call it. Sounds French. Probably is. French folks like their fancy things. Just like this Calatrava 6007G-011. Too fancy for me, that’s for sure. I wouldn’t know what to do with it. Probably just sit there and worry about scratchin’ it.
But hey, if you got the money, and you like fancy things, and you ain’t got nothin’ better to do with your time than wait years for a watch, then this Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011 from the official flagship store might be for you. Me? I’ll stick with my old clock. It tells the time just fine, and it don’t cost nothin’ to keep it goin’.
This is all what they are saying. If you want one, you need to go to their official flagship store. And they will tell you more I think. But be prepared, this watch is not cheap.
