You see, I heard them young folks talkin’ ’bout this fancy watch, the Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5227G-010, sayin’ it’s the original order. Original order, what does that even mean? Sounds like somethin’ expensive to me. They keep sayin’ it’s a good remake.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G-010, it’s got a number, see? 5227G-010. Lots of numbers for a watch. Must be important, I reckon. And this “Calatrava,” it’s a name, like Betty or Susan. This watch, it’s round, kinda like the moon. But not as big, of course. They say it’s 39 mm. I don’t know what “mm” is, but it sounds small. Good, ’cause who needs a big ol’ clunker on their wrist?
The Look of That 5227G-010
It’s all shiny, and I heard it got some gold on it. Not like the gold teeth old man Johnson has, but real fancy gold. They call it white gold. And it got a black face, like that old clock in the town square, ‘cept this one’s new and shiny, not all dusty and old.
That Patek Philippe 5227G-010, it ain’t just for tellin’ time. It also tells ya the date. Useful, I guess, ‘specially for folks who forget things easy, like me. Sometimes I forget what day it is, what with all the cookin’ and cleanin’. This watch, it’ll remind ya.
- Shiny and new, that’s what it is.
- Got that Calatrava name on it. Sounds fancy.
- 39 mm, whatever that means. Must be small.
- Black face with white gold. Sounds expensive.
- Tells you the time AND the date. Ain’t that somethin’?
That Price Tag of Patek Philippe 5227G-010
Now, I heard them say it costs a lot of money, this Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5227G-010. More money than I make in a year, that’s for sure. They say it’s worth it. Worth it for a watch? I don’t know ’bout that. But then again, I ain’t never had a fancy watch like this one. Maybe it is worth it. Maybe when you wear it, you feel like a million bucks, even if you ain’t got a million bucks. This remake one, they say it’s cheaper. But still a lot of money.
They say this Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G-010, it’s got somethin’ called a “self-winding movement.” Sounds like somethin’ out of one of them science fiction stories. But I guess it means you don’t gotta wind it up like them old clocks. That’s somethin’, I suppose. One less thing to worry ’bout.
Inside That 5227G-010 Watch
They also said there is a number inside, called caliber 324 S C. I don’t know what that means, but it sounds important. Like a secret code or somethin’. They said this caliber thing has 217 parts. 217! Can you believe that? That’s a lot of little pieces for somethin’ so small. Must be real delicate, like a baby bird. I reckon you gotta be real careful with this watch, or it will break.
They say this watch, it’s “elegant in its simplicity.” That Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G-010 sure is a simple watch. I guess that means it’s pretty, but not too flashy. Like a nice Sunday dress, not one of them sparkly things them city girls wear. Elegant. I like that word. Makes me think of that movie star, the one with the pretty smile.
I don’t know much ’bout these fancy watches. But this Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G-010, it sounds like somethin’ special. Maybe one day, I’ll get to see one up close. Maybe even try it on. Just for a minute, though. Wouldn’t want to break somethin’ so expensive and this remake one is still expensive, you know.
