The 6007A Calatrava in steel with green dial launched to strong collector interest; secondary prices remain above retail and reflect the desirability of steel Patek dress references with distinctive dial colors.
The 6007A-001 is a steel Calatrava with an olive green dial, produced only from 2020 to 2022 before Patek discontinued it. Short production runs in steel with an off-axis dial color reliably become collector targets, and this one checked both boxes. Prices cleared retail before it even left the market.
Patek introduced the 6007A in 2020 as a 40mm steel Calatrava powered by the in-house caliber 324 S C, a self-winding movement with a peripheral rotor and a Gyromax balance. The sole reference, 6007A-001, wore an olive green sunburst dial with applied hour markers and a leaf-style seconds hand. Patek discontinued the line in 2022, giving it a production window of roughly two years.
No other dial variants or case metals were released under this reference number.
Verify the dial color carefully in person or under daylight photos: the olive reads quite differently under warm indoor light and some sellers misrepresent it as grey or khaki. Check the case for polishing, particularly the lugs, as owners who serviced through non-Patek channels occasionally had the brushed flanks polished away. Confirm the box and papers are date-matched to the purchase year, since grey-market pieces sometimes arrive with incomplete documentation.
The crown and stem are slender on this case size; inspect for any play or resistance before buying.
The 6007A-001 was selling at or above its roughly $28,000 USD retail price while still in production. Post-discontinuation, secondary market prices have settled in the $34,000 to $42,000 USD range for clean, full-set examples, with the highest prices going to unworn pieces with original stickers. The steel-plus-unusual-dial combination draws both Patek collectors and buyers priced out of the Aquanaut or Nautilus market, keeping demand steady.
The caliber 324 S C carries a manufacturer-recommended service interval of around 5 to 7 years, consistent with Patek's self-winding movements of this generation. A full service at a Patek Philippe service center typically runs $1,200 to $1,800 USD depending on parts condition. Using an independent watchmaker is possible but may affect future Patek service records.

The stainless steel Calatrava is rarer than gold variants; verify the 18k hallmark claim versus the actual steel case and check for the Clous de Paris caseback.
| Area | What to check | What is correct | Red flag |
|---|---|---|---|
| caseback | Clous de Paris hobnail pattern and material hallmark | Clous de Paris hobnail pattern visible on caseback; steel case without 18k hallmark (this is a steel reference) | 18k hallmark present on what should be a steel case; missing Clous de Paris pattern |
| caseback | Cal. 324 S C movement | Cal. 324 S C visible through caseback; Gyromax balance confirmed | Any caliber other than 324 S C; movement inconsistent with Calatrava specifications |
| case | Stainless steel Calatrava case | Clean round Calatrava case in stainless steel; case finish consistent with factory polished and brushed surfaces | Any surface finish inconsistent with factory specification; any case metalwork that looks re-polished beyond factory standards |
