7234r ... 37mm travel pilot Calatrava ...

Anyone have one, and how does it work for a men’s watch?

I don't see why it wouldn't.

Just bought it for my wife, also tried it on myself. The dial size is absolutely fine. The only issue is the strap is a bit narrow compared to a men’s watch. No issues in general. I have small wrists though

I tried on in the PP boutique and it fit my wrist perfectly and looked fine. The leather band was a female band but the manager said they could switch it out for a male band very easily. Unfortunately, or fortunately, if you ask the wife, who would balk at the purchase, it was in YG, a color I don't care for.

Ok. I gotta ask. Why is it okay for a girl to wear a guys shirt but not for a guy to wear a girls shirt?


I love Ichiran’s special pilot tho

It did not work for me as the buckle tapers too much. It looked like 14mm or less. Just too narrow. The watch will work if you change out the buckle and custom order a strap.

Are these available outside of Asia? According to Hodinkee, they were only about 400 pieces and in Asia. I just inquired to my AD about this for my wife, would love for her to have a match to my 5524G and the ladies R pilot is too much $ for her and too flashy.

Oh I think you have to be a local customer with proof of address...

Ramen boi is somewhat of a narwhal in Asia.


U may have to find connections.

They are all allocated out after the PP event in Singapore. No chance of any walk-in.

The blue ones are all allocated to south east asians as it is a limited edition release. But you can get the 7234r, which is lovely as well.

The Shanghai Maison is very beautiful.
