Patek Philippe Ref. 3844/2
This particular PP ref. 3844 is a rare gem in our collection, making it a truly special addition. It’s not just the rarity of the watch that’s impressive, but also its exceptional condition. The combination of an 18k white gold bracelet and case, paired with a vivid blue sigma dial, creates a striking and captivating look. The deep shade of blue adds to its allure, making it a standout piece.
The manual cal. 215 movement enhances its vintage charm, marking it as a true masterpiece. While the original design featured an elliptical shape, it has been reinterpreted into a cushion shape, offering a unique and captivating aesthetic.
Originally crafted as a men’s watch in the 70s, this piece has evolved into a unisex model by 2024.

All the way back in 1839, Franciszek Czapek and Antoni Patek founded Patek, Czapek & Cie. in Geneva. The two Polish watchmakers manufactured pocket watches until an argument drove them apart in 1845. Patek teamed up with French watchmaker Adrien Philippe and in 1851, Patek, Philippe & Cie. was officially registered and the story of arguably the finest of watch manufacturers was truly underway.
The company would amass an impressive array of firsts and records. Among which the first perpetual calendar pocket watch, first split-second chronograph wristwatch, first perpetual calendar wristwatch and for twenty-seven years they held the record for most complicated watch movement: 33 complications.
Yes, we have entered the realm of haute horology.
The house registered its Calatrava cross logo in 1887. The Calatrava would later become one of the brand’s celebrated collections and even a design template for other brands.
Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin form what is lovingly referred to as the Holy trinity of watchmaking. Three houses that specialized in haute horology, pushing the boundaries of mechanical watchmaking, decoration and finishing techniques.
Much like Rolex and Omega rule the everyday-watch category, the Holy trinity rules haute horology. A sentiment reflected in Patek’s motto since 1996: You never actually own a Patek Philippe. You merely look after it for the next generation.
