You know, that Patek Philippe, they make some fancy watches. I heard folks talking ’bout this one, the Calatrava 6007G-011. They say it’s a classic style, but it ain’t like the old ones. It’s all gussied up, like a chicken wearing a Sunday hat. This Patek Philippe Calatrava, it’s somethin’ else, I tell ya.
This here Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s got a black face. And they put some yellow on it. I guess to make it stand out or something. Kinda like puttin’ too much hot pepper in your soup. I prefer the old-fashioned kind, the ones that just show you the time without all these frills and fancies. That old model was just fine, just fine. But people like new things, I reckon. They want them colors. They want some change.
They say these Patek Philippe watches, they cost a pretty penny. Like buyin’ a whole herd of cows, maybe more. And you gotta wait for ’em, too. Like waitin’ for the rain in a dry summer. They say sometimes you gotta wait for years! Eight years I heard someone say once, for some fancy model. Can you imagine that? My whole life ain’t that long.
- Waitin’ for a watch.
- Eight years!
- For a Patek Philippe Calatrava.
For this Calatrava 6007G-011, maybe the wait ain’t that long. Maybe just a year. Still a long time to wait for somethin’ to tell the time. Back in my day, we just looked at the sun. Or listened to the rooster. They were always on time, them roosters. I don’t know. Now, they have to wait. For a Patek Philippe. For a long time. I think I will just keep my money.
They say these watches, they’re made real good. Like a good strong fence that keeps the hogs in. Lots of little parts, all working together. I guess that’s why they cost so much. And why you gotta wait so long. They are special, I guess. This Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s probably made real good, too.
But still, all that money. You could buy a lot of things with that kind of money. A new roof for the house. A good strong mule. Or feed for the winter. Things you need, not just things you want. But I guess some folks, they got money to burn. And they want a Patek Philippe. A Calatrava.
This Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s got a fancy strap, too. They say it’s sporty. Like them young folks wearin’ them runnin’ shoes. I don’t know about sporty. Looks like it would get all sweaty to me. I prefer a good leather strap. Like a good saddle. Strong and sturdy. Lasts a long time. Just like the old Patek Philippe model. Good and strong.
They say this watch, it’s got a new way of workin’ inside. A new movement, they call it. Like a new way of churnin’ butter. I guess it’s supposed to be better. But the old way worked just fine. Kept good time. Just like my old clock on the wall. Tick-tock, tick-tock. Never missed a beat. But people want new. That Patek Philippe Calatrava is always new.
This Patek Philippe, they say it holds its value. Like a good piece of land. You can sell it later for more than you paid for it. I guess that’s good. If you need to sell it. But why buy somethin’ just to sell it? I don’t understand that. But I understand this Calatrava will be sold for a lot of money. A lot.
They got different kinds of these Calatrava 6007G. They got a yellow one. A 6007G-011, they call this one. Bright yellow, like a sunflower. I guess if you like yellow. Me, I like the color of the sky. Or the color of the dirt after the rain. Simple colors. But these Patek Philippe Calatrava watches, they are not simple. No, not simple.
They say this Calatrava, it’s all about shapes. Geometric shapes. Like them quilts my grandma used to make. Lots of little pieces, all different shapes and colors. Fitted together just so. I guess that’s kinda pretty. If you like that sort of thing. If you like shapes, this Patek Philippe is for you.
I reckon this Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s a fine watch. For someone who likes that sort of thing. For someone who’s got the money. And the time to wait. But it is a classic style, they say. And it is a Patek Philippe. So, it will be popular. Yes, it will.
