Alright, folks, gather ’round, gather ’round. Today, I’m gonna tell you about my little adventure with this here watch, the Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5088/100P-001. Now, I ain’t no fancy watch expert, but I know what I like, and I like this one. For the longest time, I’ve been eyeing this model.
First, I did some digging. A bit of online research, some forum browsing, nothing too crazy. You know, I just wanted to see what others were saying about it. And, well, turns out I wasn’t the only one interested in this timepiece. Found out it was a remake, and they say it’s got that “Original order” quality. I don’t know what that really means, but it sounded pretty darn good to me.
I heard about this Patek Philippe Calatrava, the real deal, the 5088/100P-001 model. It was black, it was shiny, and it was made of platinum. Now, I ain’t a rich man, and that original one, it costs more than my car! So, this remake started to look mighty appealing. Plus, it’s not too big, 38mm is what they said, just the right size for my wrist.
So, I took the plunge. I went ahead and ordered one. Took a few weeks, but it finally arrived. I ripped open that box like a kid on Christmas morning. And there it was, shining like a new penny. The black dial, the shiny case, it was a beauty, alright.
I started wearing it around, showing it off a bit, you know how it is. Got a few compliments, too. People asking if it was the real deal. I just smiled and said, “It’s got the look, don’t it?”
Now, I’ve been wearing it for a few months, and I gotta say, I’m happy with it. It keeps time just fine, and it looks good on my wrist. And the best part? I didn’t have to sell my truck to get it!
