    I enjoy the nonstandard calatravas. Another favourite of mine is the 5134G travel time, went out of production in 2008 and you can get one for a relatively sensible price now. Similar vibe, surprisingly sporty precious metal calatrava.
    I almost don’t want you to buy one, since I haven’t picked one up yet and I reckon you hold genuine sway over the Patek market in the UK.

  • @vertugallery7099

    If they made a steel version on a steel bracelet it would be the winner
    that it isn't. I would buy one tomorrow. In gold on a leather strap it
    falls between two stools: sport/tool watch or dress watch? Neither, so
    not competition to either. It is a watch that doesn't know what it is.
    'Calatrava Pilot Travel Time' in one sentence makes my point. To add,
    there are so many on the secondary market because people are buying them
    in the hope of getting a Nautilus out of the Patek AD and then selling
    them on to get the funds back in case the ploy actually works. Lastly,
    big case made of highly polished soft gold. Ouch. Will need to be babied
    like an occasional dress watch or it will quickly look a mess.
    But....it isn't a dress watch. You get my point.
