Patek Philippe, which initially specialized in custom-made watches, launched its first collection in 1932, with the creation of the Calatrava. This wristwatch collection for gentlemen derived its name from the knight’s cross, symbol of the Geneva manufacturer. Over thyears, several variations were created. Some cases are endowed with straight lugs from which the strap is assembled, others have integrated lugs that flow harmoniously and produce a “tonneau” effect.
