Good ol days ---> Patek Philippe 3483

 

 Dear watch aficionado.

Thinking about the good ol days with this beautiful Patek Philippe 3483 in stainless steel. The beautiful argenté, satiné soleil finished dial gives it a very discreet presence on the wrist. The 35mm case was made by Jean Vallon, who was as well the producer of the case for the 3417.

This 3483 is available at my boutique www.watchcollector.lu
