1990s Calatrava Ref. 3893 18k Gold

A true classic, the Patek Philippe Calatrava has embodied enduring style since its inception, evolving subtly over the decades while maintaining its unmistakable identity.

This reference 3893 from the 1990s is crafted in 18k yellow gold and features a porcelain-like ivory dial reminiscent of the enamel finishes found on earlier watches. Applied gold dauphine hour markers are paired with matching hands, while a delicate gold dot minute track frames the dial. A subsidiary seconds register at 6 o’clock completes the balanced layout.

The slim 6.5mm case is fitted with a signed Calatrava crown and powered by Patek Philippe caliber 215, an 18-jewel manual-wind movement well suited to the restrained proportions of the watch. It is paired with a Patek Philippe brown crocodile strap and matching 18k yellow gold tang buckle.

A straightforward and enduring Calatrava with classic proportions, equally suited to dressier occasions or understated daily wear.
