The story · Patek Philippe, est. 1839

A Calatrava worth waiting for.

Introduced in 1932, the Calatrava defined the round dress watch: a plain case, a clean dial and nothing that is not needed. The 3919 adds the hobnail Clous de Paris bezel collectors recognise at a glance.

Geneva's oldest independent family maison, owned by the Stern family since 1932. Every Patek Philippe here is opened, its calibre checked against the reference, and every complication tested before it reaches you.

From our workshop

Inspected before it was listed

Five checks. This one passed all five.

  1. The Calibre

    Passed

    We open the caseback and examine the movement. Every part must be genuine and correct for that exact reference.

  2. The Heartbeat

    Passed

    The balance and escapement are timed on a timegrapher in several positions, so you know it keeps time before you wear it.

  3. The Dial

    Passed

    Correct printing, correct lume, correct finish. A refinished or service dial is always disclosed, never hidden.

  4. The Case

    Passed

    Serial and reference must sit exactly where the maison put them, and match the papers. Any polishing is noted.

  5. The Bracelet

    Passed

    Clasp and end-link codes checked, stretch measured and disclosed, every link cleaned by hand.

Questions

Before you decide.

Anything else, ask a specialist. Monday to Saturday, 9:00 to 19:00 CET.

How do I know this Patek Philippe is genuine?

Before we listed it, a watchmaker opened the case, matched the calibre and serial to the reference and the papers, and timed it on the bench. If it is ever proven not to be genuine, you get every cent back. No time limit.

How is it delivered?

Free, fully insured and tracked, in a tamper-evident case that has to be signed for. It is insured until it is on your wrist.

What if it isn't right for me?

You have 14 days to change your mind. Send it back in the condition it arrived and we refund you in full.

Can I see it in person or ask for more photos?

Yes. We arrange private viewings by appointment, and a specialist can send you more photos or a short video of this exact piece.

How can I pay?

By bank transfer or card. A specialist confirms the details with you personally before anything is charged.

Do you take part exchange?

Often, yes. Tell us what you would like to trade in and we will give you an honest figure.
