PATEK PHILIPPE | CALATRAVA DOUBLE-SIGNED "TIFFANY & CO", REF 3802/205J, YELLOW GOLD BRACELET WATCH WITH DATE AND RETAILER SIGNATURE, CIRCA 2000

The reference 3802 saw light in 1983 and underwent several evolutions until its discontinuation in 2006. This elegant and slim precious bracelet watch began featuring a quickset date (changed by using the watch crown) in 1990. From this pivotal date, collectors have identified 3 consecutive series, identifiable thanks to the calibre they conceal.

The first series was manufactured between 1990 and 1992, utilizing the automatic caliber 310SC. The second series was offered between 1992 and 1996, using the evolutive cal. 315/190. Finally, the third series production spanned between 1996 and 2006.

The present example belongs to the third and last series for the reference. The wonderfully well preserved timepiece is furthermore bearing an exceedingly rare Tiffany & Co retailer signature onto its white lacquered dial. One of the most prestigious Patek Philippe retailers and long-time partner of the brand, Tiffany & Co would affix their signature onto the dials of the Patek Philippe pieces they would retail. The minute quantity of such watches make them very desirable collector's pieces, where detail is king. The case is signed with the hammer number 115, corresponding to the Favre-Perret legendary casemaker, allowing for a seamless integration between the slim case and smooth integrated mesh bracelet.

This rare watch is offered with its original Certificate of Origin, documentation and presentation case.
