PATEK PHILIPPE, CALATRAVA, 18K YELLOW GOLD, REF. 3796 RETAILED BY TIFFANY & CO
Reference 3796 is Patek Philippe’s last classic size “original” Calatrava. It was in production from 1982 until the late 1990s and replaced reference 96 from which it differs only by the sapphire crystal and the new caliber 215 PS. It was available in all three gold colors and in platinum, with a variation of dial layouts. With particular interest, the present lot features a Tiffany Dial in 18k yellow gold consigned by the original owner.
To the best of our knowledge, this lot has never been offered at auction and is fresh to the market
