Catalogue Essay
Released in 2004, the ref. 5196 is a modern take on the original Calatrava ref. 96. Simplicity at its best, the ref. 5196 encapsulates the very essence of the Calatrava dress watch with pure lines and refined proportion. Fitted with an understated and minimal silver dial, the slim pink gold case case delivers maximum comfort on the wrist.

Offered in “like-new” condition and complete with its full accessories, this present example is fresh-to-the-market and the 17th example in the pink metal to be identified. A rare and timeless classic for collectors seeking for supreme elegance and perfection, this ref. 5196R is the perfect choice.
