Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227G with Miyota Movement

Hello everyone,

I thought why not share with you my latest acquisition, and probably my favorite rep piece right now. I was lucky enough to snatch this beautiful piece from a member on this forum, who was kind enough to catch it, replace the rep strap with an authentic genuine Patek Philippe strap, and release it to me. The watch was brand new, all stickered up. A great piece, and a great seller.

Last but not least, I have been waiting for this watch for a very long time. there has been split opinions about this watch, especially that the Miyota movement is loud, and that the debate was on for wither the white dial is creme enough or not. so I decided to hold my horses and wait for the factories to rep the latest version of the gen Calatrava 5227, which it comes with black dial that was introduced in BASEL 2015.

Only to open the M2M last week, and see this deal that I couldn't miss out on. a brand new white dial, with the gen Patek Philippe strap. I made an offer, and it was accepted. so without further ado, I leave you with the pictures

Last but certainly not least.. a wrist shot..

Looks great and the strap is awesome. Nothing beats a genuine croc strap.

Come on mate, take out that sticker on the back, it really doesn't match the beautiful gen strap! :thumbup:

Very nice dress watch. Elegant yet subtle.

If you don't mind me asking, what are the strap's measurements between the lugs and on the buckle?

 

[Godfathar]

^^The rep strap comes 19mm/16mm. but the gen strap came 19mm/14mm unfortunately, so there is a small gap at the buckle, totally unnoticeable while wearing though.

wondering how thick is this watch compared to the non decorated miyota version

Hi.. this is the non decorated Miyota version. I never saw Calatrava 5227 with decorated Miyota movement. I only know of 2824 vs Miyota. and both none decorated. the Miyota being thinner and closer to the thickness of the gen than the 2824. If you have links to a new 5227 Miyota out there that has decorated movement, I am very interested to see it.
