Reference 5524G-001
Reference 5524G-001 was introduced in 2015 and marked one of the most surprising and successful modern releases from Patek Philippe, reinterpreting the Maison’s little-known 1950s aviator watches into a bold contemporary format. Crafted in 18k white gold, the model features a large case paired with a deep blue dial, oversized luminous Arabic numerals, and a dual time zone functionality, creating a striking balance between vintage aviation inspiration and modern technical sophistication.

Powered by the self-winding caliber 324 S C FUS, the reference offers an intuitive travel-time mechanism operated via the patented pushers on the left side of the case, making it as practical as it is distinctive. Initially polarizing yet quickly embraced by collectors, the 5524G-001 has become an important modern classic, admired for its unconventional design and its bold expansion of the traditionally dress-oriented Calatrava collection.
