Well, well, well, look at this! Remake Patek Philippe, they call it. Sounds fancy, huh? This whole thing, it’s about that Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227R-001. They got these specialty stores, see? Where they sell ’em. Expensive things, these watches. My old man, he wouldn’t know what to do with somethin’ like that. He just had that old Timex, bless his soul.
They say you can only get these fancy Patek things from certain places. Only three of them fancy stores in the whole wide world! One in Geneva, one in London, and one in Paris. Sounds like a trip, I tell ya! I ain’t never been to none of them places. If you ain’t in them cities, you gotta go to one of them, what do they call ’em, authorized dealers? Only 78 of ’em in the whole country. This Patek Philippe Calatrava, it ain’t just any watch, you know. It’s like, special.
They got these numbers on ’em, these Patek watches. Serial numbers, that’s it. And these numbers, they tell ya when the watch was made. Like a secret code, kinda. If you know the code, you know the year. Smart, huh? Like figuring out how old your chickens is, except these are watches, not chickens. This Patek Philippe 5227R-001, it’s gotta have one of them numbers, I reckon.
- Geneva
- London
- Paris
This here watch, the Calatrava 5227R-001, it’s rose gold, whatever that means. Looks kinda pink to me. And 39 mm. I don’t know what that means either. Must be a fancy way of saying how big it is. Not too big, not too small. Just right, maybe, like Goldilocks and her porridge. They say it’s good for all day. Wear it to the market, wear it to church, wear it wherever.
They make these watches all over. Hundreds of places they say, where they sell ’em. Over 400, can you believe it? And they got these, uh, distribution centers. Like warehouses, I guess. All over the world. Asia, Europe, America, some place called Oceania. They even got a museum for these things! In Geneva. A whole museum for watches. Imagine that! I ain’t never seen nothin’ like it.
This here Patek Philippe 5227R-001, it’s automatic. Means it winds itself. Don’t gotta do nothin’. My old washing machine, now that wasn’t automatic. Had to wring them clothes out by hand. This watch, though, it takes care of itself. Pretty neat, I guess, for a watch. Don’t need no batteries, neither. Now that is something great.
They got different kinds of these Patek things. This one, it’s the Calatrava. Sounds Italian, don’t it? Maybe it is. I don’t know. They got all kinds of fancy names for these things. And this one, the 5227R-001, it’s supposed to be the best. Top of the line, as they say. Like the best hen in the coop, laying the biggest eggs.
People pay good money for these watches. I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout it down at the market. Said they found some good deals for Patek Philippe. Don’t know where, though. Somewhere out there on the interwebs, I reckon. I don’t mess with that stuff much. Too complicated for me. I just get my prices in the shops.
Now, this Calatrava, it’s got this, uh, ivory dial. Ivory, like them elephant tusks? Fancy, huh? And it’s 18K rose gold. 18K! That’s a lot of gold. Must be worth a fortune. This whole watch must be. More than my whole house, I bet! This is the Patek Philippe 5227R-001, don’t forget the name.
This watch, it’s got some other stuff inside. They call it a, uh, Cal. 30-255. Sounds like a gun, don’t it? But it ain’t. It’s what makes the watch tick. 27 jewels, they say. Jewels! Inside a watch! And it’s thin. 2.55mm. That’s real thin. Thinner than a pancake, I bet. And it goes and goes, this watch. 66 hours, at least, without stoppin’. Like a good mule, that one. This is the best.
This here Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227R-001, its like the cream of the crop, it is. It’s one of a kind. It’s a luxurious thing. It’s good lookin’, and you can wear it all the time. That’s what they tell me, any way. I think this is a good watch. If you get the money, that is.
If you want a good watch, this is it. This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227R-001, its a good one. You go to them specialty stores, or them other stores, and you get yourself one. If you can, that is. It ain’t cheap, I tell ya. But it’s good. Real good.
