Patek Philippe Calatrava Pilot 5524 black dial replica: Travel Time
The Calatrava Pilot with a black dial and a black strap. Large Arabic numerals with luminous fill cover the dial, LOCAL and HOME are printed either side of the centre, and the 42 mm case is steel in a white gold colour.
Black dial, blue hands
On the studio picture the hour and minute hands are blue; on the QC photos, taken under indoor light, they read darker. A second hour hand with a cut-out tip sits beside the main one, and the date is read on the subdial at 6 by a pointer.
Case and strap
Two pushers sit on the left side of the case, at 8 and 10, opposite the crown with its engraved cross. The display caseback shows the movement and a gold-tone rotor with the same cross (QC photo 6). The strap is black calfskin with white stitching and a pin buckle.
Tiers
A Grade has 316L steel and mineral glass and runs within -1/+2 minutes a day. AAA and SuperClone use 904L steel and sapphire crystal, at ±10 and -5/+6 seconds a day. On SuperClone the Travel Time second hour hand works; for the other two tiers our team checks it before you order.
More pilots and 24-hour dials
The navy-dial 5524G-001 is the same case in blue, and the rose gold-tone 5524R-001 with a dark brown dial changes the metal. With hours counted from 2 to 24 instead, there is the black 5224 on black leather, the white 5224 in white gold-tone, the blue 5224R-001 and a white dial with rose numerals. For a moon phase and annual calendar instead of pilot markings, there is the 5205G-013 in blue gradient; more in all Complications models.

Do the numerals on the black 5524 glow?
Yes. The Arabic numerals and the hands have luminous fill.
Will a 42 mm pilot case fit my wrist?
