Catalogue Essay
Inspired by Patek Philippe's Calatrava watches, reference 5396 was first introduced in 2006 and paid homage to the watchmaker's iconic model. Reference 5396 was fitted with day and month apertures at 12 o'clock, while moon phases and date were displayed at 6 o'clock. This variant is fitted with a rare 'train track' dial, giving the watch a sportier look than normal examples.
