Patek Philippe · Family: Calatrava
The Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227R-001 is the 39mm 18kt rose-gold reference within the Calatrava family, the line that traces back to Patek Philippe's 1932 ref. 96 and defined the minimalist round dress watch. It runs the in-house automatic Calibre 324 S C, certified with the Patek Philippe Seal. Cazador has zero verified PricePoint observations (n=0), so we do not publish a market range. Its differential: an 'officer' style case with a hinged, sapphire-crystal caseback.

The Calatrava family began in 1932 with reference 96, Patek Philippe's first wristwatch conceived from scratch as a round, minimalist piece, a deliberate break from the ornamentation still common in pocket watches of the era. Ref. 96 set the visual vocabulary the Calatrava line has followed ever since: a circular case, a slim bezel, and a clean dial that prioritizes legibility over decoration.
The family's name comes from the Calatrava cross, the emblem Patek Philippe adopted as its logo in 1887 [UNVERIFIED: the exact heraldic link of that symbol to specific noble houses or lineages is not confirmed with certainty from the sources used for this fiche].
The 5227R-001 sits within that lineage as one of the contemporary Calatrava references executed entirely in 18kt rose gold, 39mm in diameter, with a distinctive trait uncommon in the current catalog: an 'officer' style case, whose hinged caseback opens in the manner of early-20th-century military pocket and wristwatches [UNVERIFIED: the reference's exact launch year and its current availability status are not confirmed with full certainty in this text].
Under the lacquered dial sits Calibre 324 S C, an automatic in-house Patek Philippe movement with a power reserve in the region of 45 hours, certified with the Patek Philippe Seal.
