Today's offering showcases this classic and pleasing Patek Philippe mens midsize dress watch.

Featuring an understated silver face and timeless case with long claw style lugs, it showcases a slender and elegant vintage style. And equipped with an illustrious Patek Philippe 10 line movement, unquestionably among the finest hand-winding movements ever built, it possesses all the necessary capabilities to earn it its place as one the finest timepieces in the world.
