The Patek Philippe Gondolo Ref. 3842R is a striking example of the maison’s ability to reinterpret classic watchmaking codes with a refined, Art Deco-inspired aesthetic. Presented in a 29x37mm rectangular case crafted from warm 18k rose gold, this Gondolo exudes understated sophistication while offering a distinct alternative to the traditional round Calatrava. Powered by a manual wind movement, the watch delivers the charm of pure mechanical horology, perfectly aligned with Patek Philippe’s heritage of precision craftsmanship. The proportions are elegantly balanced, making it an ideal choice for both formal and everyday refined wear. The watch is fitted with its original Patek Philippe buckle, further enhancing its authenticity and appeal. Dating from the 1990s and offered as watch only, this Ref. 3842R is a rare chance to acquire a vintage Gondolo that embodies timeless design, exquisite finishing, and the quiet exclusivity that defines Patek Philippe’s approach to high horology.
