Ladies Calatrava Joallerie 35mm White Gold Automatic

The captivating Patek Philippe Ref. 4997/200G-001 showcases the maison's exceptional ability to create mechanically sophisticated ladies' timepieces without compromising feminine elegance. Crafted in 18K white gold, this 35mm reference is distinguished by its diamond-set bezel with 46 flawless stones (~0.52 carats) that create subtle brilliance while maintaining refined proportions. The mesmerizing blue guilloché dial features a distinctive wave pattern that creates dynamic light play—establishing this reference as one of the most visually distinctive ladies' Calatravas in Patek's portfolio.

Mechanical excellence defines this timepiece, housing Patek's self-winding caliber 240 with micro-rotor architecture—a considerable technical upgrade from the quartz movements often found in ladies' models. The revolutionary solution incorporates an off-center 22K gold micro-rotor integrated flush with the movement bridges, maintaining the caliber's 2.53mm profile while delivering 48 hours of power reserve. The decoration includes Geneva striping, chamfered bridges, gold-filled engravings, and expert anglage—showcasing the maison's commitment to traditional finishing techniques.

Master Luxury offers this preowned Calatrava in excellent condition. The blue calfskin strap perfectly complements the dial, creating chromatic harmony throughout the composition. This sophisticated timepiece represents a departure from conventional ladies' watches through its genuine mechanical sophistication and artistic dial execution. For collectors appreciating both horological excellence and refined aesthetics, this reference delivers exceptional versatility between formal occasions and elevated daily wear—providing substantial watchmaking credibility in an elegantly proportioned package.
