This Patek Philippe, you see, this Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s somethin’ else. Heard folks callin’ it a “remake“. Fancy word for makin’ somethin’ new look like the old stuff, I reckon. This one, they say it’s for them “specialty stores“. Like them fancy shops you see in the big city. Not like ol’ Jebediah’s general store down the road, that’s for sure!
Now, I ain’t never been one for fancy things. Give me a good pair of boots and a sturdy plow any day. But I seen pictures of this watch, this Patek Philippe Calatrava thing, and even I gotta admit, it’s kinda pretty. Shiny, you know? Like a polished-up penny. The 6007G-011, that is.
They say it’s got this “Calatrava” style. Sounds like a dance or somethin’. But apparently, it means it’s like the old watches they used to make. Way back when, even before my time! They been makin’ these things since, what was it, 1839. Imagine that! Before I was a baby, even.
Heard some folks talkin’ ’bout how much it costs. More than my whole darn farm, I bet! They say you gotta wait for it too. Like waitin’ for the rain in a drought. Nine months, maybe even a whole year. And I thought waitin’ for my old cow Bessie to calve was long!
- Nine months, a whole year!
- That’s what they say about this Calatrava 6007G-011.
- Special watch, I reckon, for special folks.
Now, is it worth all that fuss? Well, I wouldn’t know. Like I said, I ain’t no fancy city folk. But some folks, they like this kinda thing. They like shiny things that tell the time. And this Patek Philippe, it does that, I suppose. Keeps time good, I hear.
They say it’s a “luxury” watch. Means it’s extra special, I guess. Like puttin’ on your Sunday best, only it’s for your wrist. They say it’s made real good. Crafted, they call it. Like how I used to craft them quilts, only smaller. Much, much smaller.
Some folks, they collect these things. These Calatrava watches. Got dozens of ’em, I heard. More watches than I got chickens! And I got a lot of chickens. They say these watches are “collectible”. Like them old baseball cards my grandson used to have. Only these are probably worth a lot more.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011, it’s a new one. A “remake“, like I said. But it’s still like them old ones. Got that same look. That same “Calatrava” style. Like a new dress made from an old pattern.
Now, me, I wouldn’t wear this thing every day. Too fancy for me. I’d be scared of scratchin’ it or gettin’ it dirty. But some folks, they like to wear ’em. Show ’em off, I suppose. Like a prize-winnin’ hog at the county fair.
This 6007G-011, it’s got some numbers on it. Probably means somethin’ important. Like the numbers on a lottery ticket. Only I bet these numbers are worth a whole lot more than any lottery I ever won.
- Patek Philippe, that’s a name I keep hearin’.
- Calatrava, that’s another one.
- 6007G-011, that’s the one they’re talkin’ ’bout now.
- Remake, specialty stores, fancy words for fancy things.
Whether or not this watch is for you, well, that’s for you to decide. If you got the money, and you like fancy things, and you don’t mind waitin’, then maybe this Patek Philippe Calatrava 6007G-011 is just the ticket. Or if you like collecting things and like those specialty stores.
Me? I’ll stick to my old clock on the wall. It might not be fancy, but it tells the time just fine. And it don’t cost more than my whole darn farm! This remake is not for me.
But hey, that’s just me. You do you. If you want this shiny Patek Philippe, you go right ahead. Just remember what ol’ me told you. It’s a long wait, and it’s gonna cost ya. But if that’s what you want, then more power to ya. The Calatrava 6007G-011 is a special one, for them specialty stores, for sure.
That’s all I know about these fancy watches, hope it helps you decide whether you want a remake, and good luck to you all.
