This is the fourth watch currently produced by Patek Philippe to feature the Pulsomax escapement, which was developed as part of the brand’s advanced research program. In combination with the Spiromax balance spring, the regulating system helps ensure long-term reliability and rate stability over a power reserve of more than one week.
The 41 mm white gold Calatrava-style case (10.52 mm thick) features a Clous de Paris (or hobnail pattern) caseband cut directly into the gold, a decoration that first appeared in the Calatrava collection in 1934 on the Reference 96D, took center stage again in 1984 with the Reference 3919, and has appeared in select Patek Philippe watches ever since. In addition to the decoration, the Ref. 5328G-001 features an unconventional case construction, with the lugs attached to the caseback, allowing the hobnail pattern to continue uninterrupted around the case. replica Jacob and Co. epic x
As for the dial, the vertical layout keeps the dial clean and legible. The power reserve indicator is domed at 12 o’clock, with the instantaneous day and date at 6 o’clock, the date indicated by a hand and the day of the week in an aperture. The small seconds subdial shares the 6 o’clock position. The brass dial is textured blue with a black gradient edge and is framed by a white railroad minute track. The applied white gold syringe-style numerals are coated with luminescent coating.
The Calatrava 8 Days Reference 5328G-001 is fitted with a blue calfskin strap with a fabric pattern and cream stitching, fitted with a new patented three-piece folding clasp that not only improves security and comfort, but also makes strap changes easier as they can be quickly changed without tools. The watch also comes with a grained taupe calfskin strap.
It is the legacy of the brand’s long power reserve watches, but with a unique style. This is a beautiful and mechanically reliable watch that fans of the brand will no doubt be eager to buy. <p>Richard Mille RM 52 skull replica</p>
