Today's offering showcases this handsome Certified Pre-Owned example of one of Patek Calatrava watches with classic styling and extremely fine handcrafted movement.

As a mens midsize, it is well-suited for someone with small wrists.

Built from 1986 through 1999, the ref. 3923 represents an excellent value in the Calatrava line - perhaps the best. It has softer lines and a more elegant form than its contemporaries in the neo-vintage Calatrava line. It achieves its powerful impact through the use of clean, simple, and elegant lines.

In some ways it is like a small ref. 2526, one of Patek's highly desired vintage watch. From a design perspective, we think it's one of the most attractive Patek's from the era for someone who doesn't have a large wrist. When Patek needed to occasionally make a limited or special edition to commemorate a special event or partner, they chose to use the 3923.

Like the ref. 3796, it is powered the same illustrious caliber 215 PS handwound engine, which excels in technical merits. Crafted and finished with by Patek Philippe with the extraordinary care associated with the world's finest watch manufacturer, it was awarded the prestigious "Geneve Quality Seal".

We were fortunate to acquire it in such beautiful undisturbed condition.

It is all original down to the original band and buckle and appears never to have been polished. Its case is mint with only very slight wear. Its case back still retains its original factory applied satin finish. A light polishing could make it present like new.

Its untouched dial is like new. It is running strong and true, keeping very accurate time.

We have performed any needed servicing and will be meticulously detailing it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Accompanying it are its original Patek strap and original 18K Patek tang buckle. Please inquire if you would like a new aftermarket strap. A new strap would make the watch present nearly like new.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance. Please inquire if you would like us to obtain an extract from the Patek archives for you.

A very handsome watch in superior all-original original condition that can be worn daily or just for special occasions.

The ref. 3923 is an essential part of any Patek Philippe "neo-vintage" watch collection.
