This here, that Patek Philippe, they call it Calatrava 5227J-001. You seen one of these? Fancy, ain’t it? Shiny and all. Reminds me of that time old man Johnson showed off his new pocket watch. Said it was the best thing since sliced bread. Well, this one here, it’s probably more ‘spensive than his whole farm.
They got this online store, see? Where you can buy these things. Now, I ain’t one for buying nothin’ online. I like to see what I’m getting, feel it in my hands, you know? But folks these days, they buy everything from the computer. They even selling this watch there. It is a remake one, but it looks like real.
This Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001, it’s a remake. Means it ain’t the real deal, but it looks like it. Like when Martha down the road got that fake diamond ring. Fooled everyone for a good while, till it turned her finger green. Hope this watch don’t do that!
- This watch, it’s got a number. That is important, the number. 5227J-001, that’s the one for this here watch.
- They say it’s Calatrava. Fancy name. Sounds like some kinda fancy dance.
- Gold color, all shiny. Like a gold tooth, but bigger.
Now, the real ones, they cost a whole heap of money. More than I ever made in my life, I reckon. But this remake Patek Philippe, it’s cheaper. Still pricey, but not as bad as the real ones. Some website says about 498 dollars. And another one, they say about 38 dollars. I don’t know which one is right, so many number. They said it includes the shipping or something. Like when you order seeds from the catalog and they bring ’em to your door.
They got all these numbers on the real Patek Philippe. Like a secret code. Tells you when it was made, where it’s been, all that. Like branding a cow, but fancier. This remake, I don’t know if it’s got those numbers. Probably not. But it still looks pretty, I guess.
My old eyes ain’t what they used to be, but I can tell this remake Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001 ain’t the real deal. Just somethin’ about it. Like when you taste margarine instead of butter. It’s close, but not quite right. The real one is more, I don’t know, perfect.
- They say the real Patek Philippe is from Switzerland. That’s a long way from here.
- This remake one, who knows where it’s from. Probably some factory far away.
- Remake means not real, but looks like real. Like a picture of a pie instead of a real pie.
That number, 5227J-001, they keep saying that. Must be important. Like the numbers on a lottery ticket. But I don’t think this watch gonna win you no lottery. Just make you look like you got money, maybe.
They say this Patek Philippe is “self-winding.” Don’t ask me what that mean. I don’t know. It’s not like my clock, you gotta wind it up to make it go. Maybe you just shake your wrist around? I don’t know. Young folks and their fancy gadgets. And they call the number on this watch “serial number”. I don’t get it. But it is the most important thing, they say.
This remake Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001, it’s like a picture of a fancy car. Looks good on the wall, but you ain’t going nowhere in it. If you want the real thing, you gotta pay the real price. And that’s more than I got, that’s for sure. They said the real one is very thin, about 3.3 mm. I guess that’s very thin for a watch.
Anyway, if you are looking for a remake Patek Philippe Calatrava 5227J-001, you can go to the online store. I seen it there. Just remember, it ain’t the real thing. But if you just want somethin’ shiny on your wrist, maybe it’s good enough. I don’t know. You do what you want. Me, I’m sticking with my old clock. It might not be a Patek Philippe, but it tells the time just fine.
This is for today. I will talk more about the fancy stuff next time.
