1967 Patek Philippe Ref. 3542 18k Yellow Gold w/ Box & Original Papers

There is the saying that “You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation.” and we think this couldn't be truer especially with Patek Philippe references such as this rare oversized Patek Philippe 3542.  The movement in this 1967 ref 3542 is the automatic winding Patek Philippe Caliber 27-460 and is in perfect condition. The automatic self-winding Patek Philippe caliber 27-460 movement, is stamped twice with the seal of Geneva quality mark, and the Patek Philippe seal as well features a beautifully decorated and massive 18k winding rotor. Additionally what is rare about this specific reference is that the running subsidiary seconds chapter is at the 6 o’clock position on the dial as opposed to being within the center of the dial and hand stack which is more common with automatic movements.

This Patek is classic and timeless, this would be a great addition to a collection lacking a formal dress watch. This timepiece would pair great with a tuxedo or suit as it would fit perfectly under the coat sleeve and is simple yet ultimately refined.
