2002 Patek Philippe Calatrava (3919J)

Introduced in the 1980’s in a time of great uncertainty in the Swiss watch industry, the Ref. 3919 signaled a sort of rebirth of Patek Philippe as a company. Needing something unique to differentiate themselves from the market at large, their answer was this now-iconic combination: a clean white dial with black hands and Roman numerals, surrounded by a hand-engraved Hobnail bezel, all in an ultra-thin Calatrava case. Purchased new in 2002 and remaining in excellent pre-owned condition, this example also includes its original boxes, manuals, portfolio and certificate and is ready for another several generations of enjoyment!
