A Patek Philippe watch with a leather strap typically starts around $15,000 for entry-level Calatrava models in stainless steel or gold with a calfskin band. Prices rise significantly for complications or precious-metal cases:
Calatrava with calfskin strap: $15,000–$25,000
Annual Calendar or Chronograph on leather: $30,000–$60,000
Grand Complications on exotic leather (alligator/croc): $70,000 and up
