Description
The cool thing about vintage Patek Calatravas is how many versions there were, how much variation around the theme there was, and how much of the variation between reference numbers was subtle. Consider this Calatrava, for example, with its baton hour markers and baton hands and Caliber 27SC. The baton hands are unusual, and consequently the 3423 is a rare vintage Calatrava.

Solid 18k gold case measures 34mm diameter by 10mm thick. The original acrylic crystal on this watch sits particularly high off the case, giving the watch a pretty unique look. The case still has its original polished finish with long straight lugs and step down bezel. The case back is 18 snap down.

Dial is matte silver with applied golden baton hour markers and golden baton hands. The 12 o’clock position has a double marker. The minutes chapter is made by filling in little dot holes with gold. Dial is in mint+ condition and is untouched original. Hands are also original and in mint condition.

Movement is the manual winding Patek Philippe Caliber 27SC with 18 jewels; adjusted to heat, cold, isochronism and in 5 positions and double stamped with the Geneva Seal.

Strap is a new modern hand-sewn brown Patek Philippe crocodile. Watch is in original condition, mint inside and out, and running fine.
