The present Calatrava Haute Joaillerie Reference 4895 is a breathtaking fusion of horological excellence and high jewelry artistry. The 162 baguette diamonds, weighing approximately 5.62 carats, are elegantly arranged around the dial in up to five rows, with flared ends extending gracefully over the strap. This intricate setting demands exceptional precision, as the diamonds must be internally flawless, exhibit Top Wesselton fine white brilliance, and be perfectly matched in size, shape, and cut to achieve a harmonious composition.

The task of selecting these 162 diamonds falls to the manufacture's skilled gemologist, who meticulously examines hundreds of stones under a magnifying glass, tirelessly comparing, rejecting, rematching, and rearranging them until the ideal combination is found. Only then can the exquisite artistic drape of diamonds be brought to life. As a true testament to Patek Philippe's craftsmanship, the Calatrava Haute Joaillerie combines the brand's signature refinement with the brilliance of precious gemstones, making it a coveted piece.
