When it was presented at Baselword 2021 I was captivated by the rejuvenation work of the legendary Calatrava. Apart from a few rare models, I found their watches too classic, too "old-fashioned". This new Calatrava Clous de Paris is a turning point that clearly aims to attract a new, younger clientele... of which I am one :). It is exceptional on the wrist and the white gold gives it a presence that is both discreet and "dazzling"

Patek Philippe Calatrava 6119G - "Clous de Paris"

For this exceptional year, the sale of my company and the year of my 50th birthday, I wanted to mark the occasion.
I have several very beautiful watches in my collection, but the GRAIL has always been for me the 5711. After years of waiting, efforts, sacrifices and choices, I broke my piggy bank and bought myself my GRAIL.
A madness..But as they say, you only live once. This watch is exceptional on the wrist. Very thin, very light, discreet, so comfortable to wear. Sincerely...the 5711 It's the GRAIL


My Grail

It was a revelation from its presentation at Baselword 2019. Both classic and model, this 40mm steel model represented for me a "renewal" of the PP ranges. Apart from the Nautilus, I found the models too classic, often too complex. This new model, original by its complication and its writings, was an immediate favorite. It is exceptional to wear, very light, it is perfectly suitable for everyday use.

For years, I was looking at this watch without really understanding the concept. One day, for no reason, my opinion changed...and this watch became an obsession. Unique because of its square shape, because of its winder on the left, this watch has become an obvious choice in my collection. Despite its shape, it fits very well on the wrist and is very comfortable.

The Patek Philippe brand was created in 1839 by Antoine Norbert de Patek and Fran&ccedil;ois Czapek in Geneva, Switzerland. Historic brand of Haute Horlogerie, Patek Philippe is part of the very closed circle of the oldest manufacturers still in operation. It is notably at the origin of the caliber 89, the first pocket caliber with 33 complications. Since its creation, it has had real know-how in artisanal know-how and a strong capacity to innovate. In fact, since 1845, it has been the source of more than 70 patents.
The Patek Philippe range offers sporty-chic watches such as the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/patek_philippe/nautilus_5711"> Patek Nautilus 5711</a> or the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/patek_philippe/aquanaut"> Patek Philippe Aquanaut</a>, as well as classic watches like the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/patek_philippe/calatrava"> Patek Philippe Calatrava</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/patek_philippe/complications"> Patek Philippe Complications</a> or the Patek Philippe Gondolo.

The brand created a surprise in October 2024 with the announcement of a new collection: the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/patek_philippe/cubitus"> Patek Philippe Cubitus</a>.
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Patek Philippe cost?</h2>
Prices for Patek Philippe watches change every year, but most Patek Philippe models cost between $30,000 and $60,000. A steel Patek Philippe Aquanaut costs around $24,100, while a Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar Chronograph in yellow gold costs more than $200,000. Patek also offers models made from precious materials and set with diamonds at higher prices.
The second-hand market is also an opportunity to look at to obtain a Patek Philippe, the price of which will most certainly be higher than new given the shortage of watches available from the brand's rare authorized resellers.
<h2 dir="ltr">Patek Philippe: The historic reference in Haute Horlogerie</h2>
The brand Patek Philippe has been owned by the Stern family since 1932 and produces approximately 68,000 watches per year, all models combined.

Created in 2017 by designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu brings a new dimension to watchmaking by creating watches that are aesthetic, astonishing and deeply symbolic. The round hands, signature of the House, reflect singularity and sophisticated simplicity. Each model features a deliciously contemporary design, where every detail, every surface, interacts with light.
Breaking the codes of traditional watchmaking by providing a new vision of time, Beaubleu watches go off the beaten track by featuring round, hollowed-out hands, inspired by the work of Galileo in his understanding of the solar system. These hands poetically display the hours, which do not point to an index or a graduation, but which indicate a position, an instant from the center of the dial.
<h2 dir="ltr">What are the main models of the Beaubleu brand?</h2>
Beaubleu has just announced on June 5, 2024, the launch of a new limited series collection called<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/beaubleu/seconde_francaise"> Beaubleu Seconde Francaise</a>.

<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Beaubleu watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Beaubleu watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 800 and &euro; 1,600 according to the references.
