Why We Love it

Though the famous Calatrava is — for good reason — perhaps the best known of Patek Philippe’s incredible dress watches, there are myriad others that deserve recognition.

From the rectangular Gondolo to the curvaceous Golden Ellipse, these timepieces, though simple in design, beg a closer look for their classic proportions and strict attention to detail. Patek has been producing such wristwatches for roughly a century of its 180-plus years, and shows no signs of slowing down.

This particular dress watch, a Reference 3409, is a stunning piece from the brilliant mind of Gilbert Albert, Patek’s design director in the late 1950s. (It’s also extraordinarily rare, with only eight examples known to collectors.) Produced in the late 1950s and retailed in 1960, it was designed as a men’s piece, but could work just as easily for ladies’ wrists. 

Housed in a 20mm 18k yellow gold case from Markowski with a convex acrylic crystal, and a signed crown, it features a wildly cool, yellow gold ‘bark’ dial with factory applied ruby indices, a matching yellow gold 'pencil' handset, and a matching 'bark'-finished integrated yellow gold flat-link bracelet with a signed safety clasp. Powered by the Patek Philippe Calibre 9-90 hand-wound movement, this piece comes with an extract from the Patek Philippe archives confirming production in 1958 and sale in 1960!

This is more than a timepiece — it’s a museum piece, an extraordinary work of horological art, and there is no saying when one of these will show up again!

Brand Story

+
Founded in 1839, Patek Philippe is one of the oldest watch manufacturers in the world with an uninterrupted watchmaking history. Few international luxury brands carry the gravitas of their name, and for good reason. The firm's commitment to excellence in horological manufacture is unflinching, and their track record of innovation in design without peer. They continue to lead the industry, and even their fiercest competitors have nothing but the utmost respect for the company.

From the simple elegance of their Calatrava line to the stunning study in miniaturization that is reference 1518 perpetual calendar to the modern reference 5750P chiming watch, Patek’s catalog is chock full of some of the most elegant and complicated timepieces ever made. Family-owned and completely independent, the firm has the freedom to do what it wants — such as discontinue one of the world’s most beloved steel luxury sport watches, the reference 5711 — when it wants.

Owning a Patek Philippe is for many the ultimate goal of timepiece collecting, and for a certain type, the only timepieces they collect. Whichever way you look at it, there is no questioning the elegance of design, superlative manufacture of their cases and movements, or the sheer elegance and emotion that comes from owning one.

Of course for a brand that is steeped in heritage, we are told “You never actually own a Patek Philippe…”

Well, you know the rest.
