Patek Philippe Calatrava 5226G-001 replica, charcoal grained dial
Our Patek Philippe Calatrava 5226G-001 replica has a grained charcoal dial that lightens toward the centre, with large beige Arabic numerals, beige hands, a railway minute track around the edge and a date window at 3. The 40 mm case is steel in a white gold tone, with a knurled pattern around the caseband, and it sits on a sand-coloured strap with white stitching.
Next to the 5226G on black fabric
The 5226G on a black fabric strap uses the same case and a very similar grained dial with cream numerals. Here the sand strap makes the watch look lighter; on black fabric it reads darker and sportier.
Tier
Listed as SuperClone only: 904L steel, a sapphire crystal and a movement that keeps within -5/+6 seconds a day. The case is rated 30 m.

For the charcoal colour with baton markers, the 39 mm 6119 with a hobnail bezel has small seconds and no date. For a classic ivory dial and a hinged back, see the 5227R-001 in rose gold-tone.
Every reference is in our Calatrava line-up, and the guide Calatrava vs Nautilus explains how the dress line and the sport line differ.
