1977 Patek Philippe 3666 - 18K Yellow Gold Cushion Blue Sunburst Dial

Trade In
Details
A Complete Set From A Classic Era
The reference 3666 is a quiet expression of Patek Philippe's design confidence in the 1970s. It moves away from the traditional round case, opting instead for a soft cushion shape that feels both classic and of its time. What elevates this piece to the highest tier is not just its design, but its completeness. Finding a vintage Patek dress watch from this period is one thing, but finding one with its original box and papers is a true event for a serious collector. It represents a preserved piece of history.
A Mint Dial And Full Provenance
The centerpiece of this watch is its blue sunburst dial, which remains in exceptionally mint condition. Dials from this era, particularly colored ones, were susceptible to aging and damage, making a flawless example like this genuinely rare. The fact that this watch is a "full set" with its original box and papers provides an unbroken chain of provenance, confirming its authenticity and giving it a level of collectibility that a bare watch simply cannot match.
Very Good, Honest, And Complete
This watch is in very good overall condition. The 18K yellow gold case is in great shape, showing signs of careful wear consistent with its age and is believed to be unpolished. The blue sunburst dial is pristine. It is fitted to an original leather strap with an aftermarket buckle. The presence of its original box and papers makes this a rare and complete package for a vintage Patek. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Art Of Daily Ritual
This is a watch for someone who understands that true luxury is often quiet. The cushion case is elegant and understated, a perfect example of classic Patek Philippe proportions. As a manual-wind watch, it requires a daily interaction, a morning ritual of winding that creates a direct physical connection between the owner and the intricate machine. It is this bond, combined with its rarity as a complete set, that makes the 3666 a deeply satisfying watch to own and wear.

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
