Patek Philippe Calatrava for Gubelin Ref. 3423

Elevate your collection with an exceptional rarity: the Patek Philippe Calatrava Reference 3423, co-signed by the storied Swiss retailer Gübelin. During the golden era of mid-century watchmaking, only an elite handful of Patek Philippe timepieces were permitted to bear the retailer’s name alongside the manufacturer’s signature. This double-signed dial represents the ultimate badge of exclusivity, making it a cornerstone investment piece for the discerning vintage connoisseur.  The solid yellow gold stepped case looks to be unpolished with the lugs still showing their original lines.  The dial is the real stunner on this watch.  The all original silver opaline dial is double signed with Gubelin and in pristine condition.  It is accented with applied yellow gold faceted baton hour markers and ultra elegant matching stick hands.  This watch comes complete with its original brown crocodile Patek Philippe strap,  Patek solid gold tang buckle, original box and its Original Patek Philippe Certificate D'Origine .  While standard vintage Calatravas are universally adored, double-signed dials represent a completely separate stratum of rarity. They capture a bygone era of partnerships between the world's finest watchmaker and its most premium boutique networks. Refined, historically significant, and universally respected, this Ref. 3423 sits at the pinnacle of understated luxury.
