This is an example of a truly classic vintage wristwatch, and we truly believe that this is one of the most versatile watches that you could own. Its stunning and has all the hallmarks of Patek’s most enduring line, the Calatrava.
We LOVE this type of screw down caseback , it looks elegant , yet masculine ,so cool !
The yellow gold case- made by case maker François Borgel remains in fine condition, with great definition across the 35mm case. The silver grene finish dial is wonderful with hand-finished yellow gold hour markers and small seconds with cross hair feature.
The no lume dauphine hands are very fine in yellow gold.
Included with this watch is an Archive Extract that confirms the watch was sold in June 1957. This watch comes fitted with the pictured leather strap that is fitted with the original Patek Philippe 18kt gold buckle. The manual wind movement cal 12.400 has been fully serviced by our watchmaker.
We love meeting and chatting with all you watch lovers. Please arrange a visit or a call to discuss this beautiful Patek Philippe.
