The Calatrava style, named after the famous Patek Philippe design school, became an enduring symbol of understated sophistication during the 1950s. This piece reflects the post-war era’s emphasis on slim profiles, balanced dials, and precise mechanics—ideal for formal occasions but equally charming for daily wear. A vintage Cornavin Calatrava is not only a fine example of mid-century design but also a tangible link to the golden age of Swiss horology.
