Patek Philippe Gondolo Vintage Watch Ref 3519 18Kt Gold Rectangular Case Mint

The Patek Philippe Reference 3519 is a refined, rectangular vintage dress watch introduced in 1965 and produced until the early 1970s. Produced during the height of mid-century design, the Ref. 3519 served as an elegant alternative to the round Calatrava models. Because of its distinct geometric shape and emphasis on simple, timeless geometry, it helped pave the way for Patek Philippe’s later iconic shaped collections like the formalized Gondolo line.

Its amazingly sculptural and stepped case in 18Kt yellow gold is definitely unpolished and measure 25x33mm (a perfectly wearable size still nowadays). Original logged crown. Beautiful and flawless vertical striped argentée soleil dial. The movement is the hand wind in house Pp 23-300. The watch is fitted on an original Pp leather strap.
