GR Upgrade Strong Night Glow Version Arrives - Patek Philippe Calatrava Series Ref. 5226G-001 Size: 40mm.Case: The Patek Philippe Calatrava series is renowned for its smooth and rounded case shape. Today, Patek Philippe has redesigned this model based on that feature, sculpting a Parisian nail pattern along the case edge. The Parisian nail pattern is a classic element of Patek Philippe, reintroduced in the Calatrava series with the Parisian nail watch Ref. 6119 launched in 2021. Furthermore, the designer has developed a special case structure that integrates the lugs with the case back, allowing the Parisian nail pattern to cover the entire side of the case. The charcoal gray dial exudes a vintage charm, with a black gradient effect along the edges, and its subtle grain texture evokes the exterior of antique cameras. The dial is complemented by three-dimensional hour markers coated in beige luminescent material, along with a discreet railway-style seconds scale. The hour and minute hands are also coated with beige luminescent material, while a date window at the 3 o'clock position features beige numerals against a black background.Movement: The 9015 has been modified to the Cal. 26-330 S C movement, with the movement's bridges chamfered and finely polished at the edges. The large bridges are adorned with fishscale and Geneva wave patterns, while the surface of the bridges features gold engraving. The screw slots are polished and chamfered, with all details executed to perfection, proudly bearing the classic double P hallmark of Patek Philippe! The movement details are closer to those of an authentic piece.Strap: The new Ref. 5226G-001 comes with two interchangeable straps: one in beige suede calfskin and the other in black calfskin, both featuring embossed patterns and beige stitching. Both straps come with a pin buckle and are equipped with quick-release spring bars, making strap changes more convenient!.After the discontinuation of the 5296, Patek Philippe has filled the gap with this elegant three-hand watch that dazzles with its stunning design!
