Alright, let’s talk about this Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 6007G-010 watch thing, the original order one. Folks say it’s a fancy watch, real high-class. Don’t know much about fancy stuff myself, but I can tell ya what I see and what I hear.
First off, they say this watch costs a whole heap of money. I heard someone sayin’ somethin’ ‘bout $34,999. Lordy, that’s more than my old man made in a whole year! For a watch! Must be somethin’ special, I reckon.
- They call it a “Calatrava.” Sounds like a foreign word to me. Guess it means somethin’ fancy in watch talk.
- This watch, it’s all black and shiny. Ebony black, they call it. Like a shiny black stove, but way smaller, of course.
- And it’s made of white gold. Not the yellow kind, mind you. White gold. Guess that’s why it costs so much.
Now, this watch ain’t just plain black, no sir. It’s got all sorts of designs on it, little lines and shapes. They call it “rhythmic geometry.” Sounds like somethin’ outta a schoolbook, but it just means it’s got patterns, ya see? Like a quilt, but real tiny and fancy.
And right smack in the middle, they say there’s somethin’ called a “carbon fiber” pattern. Don’t ask me what carbon fiber is. Sounds like somethin’ you’d find in a factory, not a watch. But I guess it makes it look…well, I guess it makes it look “modern,” like them city folks like.
The watch hands, those little pointy things that tell you the time, they ain’t just plain neither. They got a little bit of color on ‘em, makes ‘em stand out. Makes it easier to see the time, I suppose. Though why you’d need a $34,999 watch to tell the time is beyond me. My old kitchen clock does just fine.
They say this watch has been around for a long time, this “Calatrava” style. Since 1839, they say. That’s way before I was even a twinkle in my daddy’s eye. So, it’s got history, I guess. Like an old family Bible, but way more expensive and you can’t read no scriptures on it.
Patek Philippe, that’s the name of the company makin’ these watches. Sounds foreign too. They must be some big shots to charge that much for a watch. Must be good quality, I reckon. You don’t pay that kind of money for somethin’ that’s gonna fall apart in a week.
I heard tell they’re makin’ more of these watches, new ones. All white gold and with that ebony black face. Guess rich folks like their watches all matchin’ or somethin’. I don’t know, seems kinda silly to me. But then again, I ain’t never been one for fancy things.
So, this Patek Philippe PP Calatrava 6007G-010, the original order one, it’s a fancy, expensive watch. Black, shiny, with patterns and a bit of color on the hands. Made by some big-shot company and been around for a long, long time. That’s ‘bout all I can tell ya. If you got that kind of money to spend on a watch, well, good for you. Me, I’ll stick with my old kitchen clock. It tells the time just fine, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg.
And another thing, this watch, it’s supposed to be some kind of status symbol. Means you got money, I guess. Folks see you wearin’ it, they know you ain’t no poor farmer. But I tell ya, a good heart and a strong back are worth more than any fancy watch. That’s what my mama always said, and she was a wise woman.
Now, if you’re lookin’ to buy one of these watches, I can’t help ya. Don’t know where you’d even find one. Probably gotta go to one of them fancy stores in the big city. And bring a whole lot of cash, that’s for sure. But if you do get one, well, take good care of it. Sounds like it’s worth more than my whole house.
And one more thing before I forget, they say this watch is real precise. Tells the time real accurate. Not like those cheap watches that are always a few minutes off. I guess if you’re gonna spend that much money, it better tell the time right! Otherwise, you’d be better off just lookin’ at the sun. That’s what we used to do back in the day, and we always knew what time it was, give or take a few minutes.
