With its distinctive curved rectangular case, the Patek Philippe Reference 3557 represents an elegant departure from the Manufacture’s more conventional round dress watches. Its architectural silhouette, balanced proportions and understated execution embody the refined aesthetic of mid-century Patek Philippe design.

The watch is in very good overall condition considering its age with signs of minor surface wear throughout. The movement is running at the time of cataloging, however, it was not tested for the accuracy of time or duration of the power reserve and may need service at the buyer's discretion. Please note that Sotheby's does not guarantee the future working of the movement.


Please be advised that bands made of materials derived from endangered or otherwise protected species (i.e. alligator and crocodile) cannot be shipped outside the country of sale. If these watches are purchased outside of Hong Kong, we will replace with calf leather bands prior to shipping.
