The Patek Philippe Reference 96 was the first and perhaps most iconic Calatrava watch when it was released in the mid 1930s. This reference was produced for more than 40 years in yellow, white, and rose gold as well as platinum and steel. Over those four decades, as few as 1050 pink gold examples were made and even fewer with a pink dial like the example offered here. This watch comes with an archive noting the dial and remains in wonderful original condition with a clear hallmark on the side of the case at 9 oclock.
