This Patek Philippe, what’s it called again? Oh, right, Calatrava 5227J-001. You know, them fancy watches. Well, let me tell you, I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout how much it costs, and my oh my, it’s a hefty price tag! This one, they say it’s a remake. Like they took the old one and did it up all new again. RemakePatek Philippe, that is what they call it these days.
They say this Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001, it’s got a gold case. Yellow gold, mind you, 18k, whatever that means. Must be some fancy type of gold. Shiny, I reckon. And 39 mm. I don’t know much about these measurements, but I guess it’s a good size for a watch. Not too big, not too small. Just right, Goldilocks style.
Now, the price, that’s where things get a little crazy. They’re talkin’ ’bout a quote, you see. Like, how much it’s gonna cost ya. And let me tell you, it ain’t cheap. You could probably buy a whole herd of cows for that kind of money! Or maybe a nice tractor. Or maybe even two small tractors.
- Gold Case: They say it’s 18k yellow gold. Fancy!
- Size: 39 mm. Not too big, not too small, they say.
- Ivory Dial: Whatever that means. Probably looks pretty.
- Price: Big bucks! Enough to make your head spin.
I heard them talkin’ about this Calatrava 5227J-001 quote, and I thought, who needs a watch that costs that much? My old Timex keeps time just fine. Been tickin’ for years, that one. Maybe I should sell it for a big quote, too! Just kiddin’, nobody would buy my old watch.
But this Patek Philippe, they say it’s special. A remake, they call it. Like a movie, but with a watch. They take the old one, dust it off, give it a new shine, and bam! It’s worth a fortune. It’s all about that name, I guess. Patek Philippe. Sounds important.
This new Calatrava, it’s got an ivory dial. Now, I don’t know what that means exactly, but it sounds kinda pretty. Like them old piano keys. Maybe it’s got a little picture on it. Or maybe it’s just plain. But for that price, it better be somethin’ special.
I saw a picture of one of these remake Patek Philippe watches once. Looked real shiny. All that gold, I guess. It would be like wearing a little gold plate. I bet it’s heavy, too. But folks who buy these things, they don’t care about heavy. They just want to show off, I reckon.
Now, I’m not one to judge. If folks want to spend their money on a fancy watch, that’s their business. But me, I’d rather have somethin’ practical. Somethin’ that tells time, sure, but also somethin’ that can help me out on the farm. Like a good pair of boots. Or a new plow.
This Calatrava 5227J-001, it’s a pretty thing, I’ll give it that. But it’s just not for me. I’m a simple woman. I don’t need all that fancy stuff. Just give me a good, honest day’s work, and I’m happy. All of these fancy remake Patek Philippe is just too much for me.
You know, it’s a good day today. Sun is shining, the price of corn is pretty good. Although those city folks are always complaining about the price, but I always think the price is too low. And there are those fancy watches, too. I don’t think those are necessary. Maybe I am getting old. Always saying things like these. But these things are true. I do not understand the city folks.
But that quote, though. It’s got me thinkin’. Maybe I should start chargin’ for my pies. Folks always say they’re the best around. Maybe I could get a fancy price for ’em. A Patek Philippe price, even! Ha! Just imagine that. A pie that costs more than a tractor. And my pies are not even remade!
Well, I best get back to work. Got chores to do. And pies to bake. Maybe one day I will make a remake apple pie. That would be something. It’s funny how things can be remade. Maybe I should just focus on my pies and stop thinking about that Patek Philippe. It’s just a watch, after all. A very, very expensive watch. But that is not for me. I am just a simple person.
