On our site you’ll find plenty of high-end timepieces, including the Patek Philippe Calarava, a watch worn by American business magnate John Francis “Jack” Welch Jr., who served as the chairman and CEO of General Electric from 1981-2001. He now has a biweekly column for Reuters and Fortune.

Created in 1932, the Patek Philippe Calatrava is the result of an avant-garde philosophy of aesthetics that showcases sleek lines and subtle elegance, according to the Patek Philippe website. These inimitably elegant ladies’ and men’s watches are impervious to short-lived trends, recapturing the hearts of each new generation. Whether extra thin, with hobnail patterns or wide polished bezels, they are all unmistakable members of the Calatrava family and even their changing faces cannot belie their origins. No other watch lends better expression to the true Patek Philippe style.
