Patek Philippe adds new Pilot to collection

The new Calatrava Pilot Travel Time rounds out Patek Philippe’s watch family that is inspired by the manufacture’s aviator’s watches from the 1930s. As a medium-sized version of the Ref. 5524G launched in 2015, the Ref. 7234G Calatrava Pilot Travel Time has a diameter of 37.5 mm to fit women’s and men’s wrists. The round Calatrava case in white gold houses the self-winding calibre 324 S C FUS movement with 294 parts and features the exceptionally convenient Travel Time system for displaying a second time zone. The blue lacquered dial, inspired by aviator’s watches, is highly legible thanks to applied white-gold numerals filled with a white luminous coating and broad luminous baton hands made of blued white gold. The timepiece is offered on a shiny navy-blue calfskin strap secured with a clevis prong buckle in white gold.
