This Patek Philippe Ref.3923 leans into the classic aesthetic embodied by Patek Philippe, taking many aesthetics cues from the manufacture's vintage pieces.
The applied hour indexes are made out of rose gold, with multiple facets, which complement the style of the hour, minutes and seconds hand.
The "Patek Philippe Genève" signature features subtle serif details, which have now been lost on current pieces from the manufacture, further imbuing this piece with a distinctive "neo-vintage" aesthetic. In particular, the accent on the "è" of "Genève" is a feature most attributed to the brand's earliest pieces.
The rose gold case features an amorphous shape, with a stepped bezel and curved lugs, reminiscent of those found on some vintage pieces. At 32 mm in diameter, with 37mm lug to lug, the proportions of the Calatrava are perfectly balanced, helping its role as a classic dress watch. The curved lugs, as well as the relatively large 17mm lug width, help the watch feel larger on the wrist than its dimensions would otherwise suggest. With a thickness just under 7mm, it also hugs the wrist, in a way that is both comfortable and elegant.
This Patek Philippe 3923 is powered by the manual-winding caliber 215 PS, which beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offers a 44-hour power reserve. The movement is subtly finished, with chamfering on some of the angles, as well as polishing and decoration, in the form of Geneva striping.
This movement carries the Geneva Seal, which is unique in its accreditation as it focuses on the art of decorating a movement with finesse and skill, in the style of Genevan watchmaking.
This Patek Philippe ref. 3923 in rose gold is accompanied by it's original box and original Certificate showing a delivery in February 1992 at the Boutique Patek Philippe Avenue Montaigne in Paris.
12 months Warranty.
