Patek Philippe
Ref. 3509
Calatrava
A rare and elegant stainless steel wristwatch with Roman numerals, Certificate of Origin and presentation box
Full-Cataloguing
- Presented here is the Calatrava ref. 3509, crafted in stainless steel. This model has earned a significant status, contrasting with the Calatrava's traditional dress watch persona, as one of the very few vintage Patek Philippe references made from stainless steel.
- In addition to its rare material, the ref. 3509 is particularly desirable for its screw-down caseback, a notable departure from Patek Philippe's more typical snap-on casebacks. Featuring a manual wound movement and a simple silver dial adorned with black Roman numerals and sword-shaped hands, the ref. 3509 finds its place in today’s horological landscape while its classically styled dial serves as a reminder of its storied heritage.
- This timepiece is further distinguished by its accompanying accessories, as it comes complete with its original Certificate of Origin, Geneva certificate and presentation box.
