Well, lemme tell ya, I seen a thing or two in my day, but this here Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5226G-001, that’s somethin’ else. They say it’s a fancy watch. Like, real fancy. I ain’t never seen nothin’ like it ’round here, that’s for sure. I hear those city folk like this kinda thing for their Official flagship store. Fancy, huh? I remember my gramps used to have an old pocket watch. It weren’t nothin’ like this, though.
This here Patek Philippe, it’s got all these numbers and lines. I think it is the latest addition to the Calatrava collection. I don’t rightly know what they all mean, but they sure do look important. They say it’s for tellin’ time, but it seems like it does a whole lot more than that. Calatrava, what a funny name. It is like some magic word, you know. They say it’s automatic. It means, I think you don’t have to wind it up like them old clocks. That is something, huh?
My old eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I can still see that this watch is shiny. Real shiny. Like a new penny. They say it’s made outta somethin’ called “white gold”. Imagine that! Gold that’s white. Back in my day, gold was gold. Yellow, like the sun. I don’t know what they think in the city. It’s like they just make stuff up! But it is pretty, I tell you.
- This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5226G-001 thing, it’s like a little machine.
- Got all these tiny parts movin’ around inside.
- They say it got somethin’ called a “caliber” inside.
- Like a tiny engine, keepin’ it all runnin’ smooth.
- They say it got 45-hour power, like a car battery.
I seen pictures of it, and it’s got a strap made outta some kinda fancy leather, I reckon. Looks real soft, not like the old leather straps we used to have. Them things would crack and dry out somethin’ fierce. This one looks like it’d feel nice on your wrist. But who needs a watch this fancy? Not me, that’s for sure. We don’t need nothin’ fancy like this Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5226G-001 for our flagship store. A simple clock would do just fine. It is like they try to make life complicated.
They say this watch is special. Like, one of a kind. They don’t make many of ’em. That’s why it costs so much, I guess. I heard a fella say it costs more than a new tractor! Can you believe that? A watch that costs more than a tractor! Back in my day, a tractor was everythin’. This one is like something come out of a dream.
I reckon some folks like these fancy things. Maybe it makes ’em feel important, wearin’ somethin’ so expensive. They say it is a symbol. A symbol of what? I don’t know. I guess it’s like sayin’, “I got more money than I know what to do with.” That’s what I think, anyway. They say it is from 1932, just like the Reference 96, maybe even older, I don’t know. But my gramps old watch, it works just fine.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5226G-001, it ain’t somethin’ you wear when you’re workin’ in the garden. It’s more of a dress-up watch, I reckon. For fancy parties and such. We don’t have many of them ’round here. Most folks ’round here, they just need a watch that tells the time. Nothin’ fancy. I can’t imagine wearing a watch when I go out. I don’t go to the fancy place, you know. This watch is too fancy.
They say this watch is a piece of history. Like somethin’ you’d find in a museum. They say it’s a classic. I don’t know about all that. It is from a long time ago, I think. All I know is, it’s a whole lotta fuss over a little ol’ watch. But I guess that’s just the way things are these days. Everything’s gotta be fancy and expensive. It ain’t like the old days, that’s for sure. This Remake Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 5226G-001, it is like the king of the watch. All shiny and fancy.
Well, I guess that’s all I got to say about this here fancy watch. It’s a pretty thing, I’ll give it that. But it ain’t for me. I’m happy with my old clock. It tells the time just fine. And that’s all that matters, ain’t it? It don’t need to be fancy to tell the time, right? I think so. I really think so.
