|百達翡麗，「Calatrava飛行家旅行時間系列」5524G型號，精緻罕有白金兩地時間自動腕錶，配日期及日夜顯示，全新原廠雙封，2018年。附錶盒、證書、說明書和配件。Patek Philippe's Reference 5524G was first unveiled at Basel World in 2015 and is an homage to the Pilot watches and scientific instruments released by the brand in the 1930s and now housed in the world-renowned Patek Philippe Museum in Geneva. Every detail of this future classic wristwatch evokes a bygone era of aviation. The gorgeous dial in a retro, grainy matte-finish changes between a deep midnight blue to a brighter royal blue depending on the lighting, with luminescent Arabic numerals and hands that make the dial easily legible to its wearer. A second white, delineated arrow hand indicates the second time zone, whilst two round apertures reveal the day/night indication for the "local" and "home" time zones. As a sporty and vintage touch, the brown calf leather strap of the Ref. 5524G is hand-stitched with a high-contrast cream thread, akin to the belts of the pilots of the 1930s. The present example is in completely mint condition, still in its "double seal" and encased in the original, unopened Patek Philippe card box and plastic sealed bag.
