Patek Philippe 3446 Calatrava Automatic Stainless Steel circa 1961

This Patek Philippe Calatrava reference 3466 is an uncommon execution in stainless steel, a material rarely used for classic Calatrava models of this period. The 35 mm case features a screw down case back and offers a strong, contemporary presence on the wrist.

The original silver sunburst dial shows light, even patina and is fitted with applied baton markers, creating a clean and balanced aesthetic. A notable detail is the large ‘Double P’-crown, adding character and reinforcing the sporty undertone of this reference.

Power comes from the Patek Philippe calibre 27 460 automatic movement, fitted with an 18k yellow gold rotor. This movement is highly regarded for its quality, reliability, and finishing. Produced circa 1961, this example stands out due to its rare case material, excellent overall condition, and versatile wearability.
