Details
A Window To The Golden Era
The 1960s were a period of immense creativity for Patek Philippe, a time when watch design broke free from convention. This reference 3310 is a product of that era, a seamless piece of sculpture crafted from solid 18k yellow gold where the case, bezel, and bracelet flow into one another. It is a masterclass in mid-century design, showing how a watch could be both a timekeeping instrument and a piece of high jewelry. What truly elevates this piece to another level is its exhibition caseback. This feature, which we now take for granted, was virtually unheard of in the 1960s. To find a vintage Patek dress watch with a transparent back is to encounter an exceptionally rare configuration. It offers a view into the manually wound movement, transforming the watch from a beautiful object into a piece of kinetic art and mechanical transparency.
An Artifact Of Design And Craft
This example is defined by its unique integrated form. The design language is fluid and cohesive, a style that required immense skill to execute. The bracelet is not merely attached to the case; it is an extension of it. This approach was often championed by legendary artisans of the period, resulting in watches that wore with the comfort and elegance of a second skin. The beautiful open caseback allows for an appreciation of the fine finishing on the movement, a privilege rarely afforded to owners of watches from this period.
Honest Condition On A Masterwork Bracelet
The watch is in good overall condition. The unpolished 18k yellow gold case and integrated bracelet show honest wear consistent with their age, but the form and integrity of the design are fully intact. The crystal is clean, and the champagne dial remains in excellent shape. The exhibition caseback is a stunning and unusual highlight, offering a clear view of the caliber within. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
A Connection To The Craft
This is a watch for a connoisseur who understands the nuances of mid-century Patek Philippe design. It is more than a time-only dress piece; it is a statement of artistic intent from a golden age of watchmaking. The manual wind movement requires a daily interaction, a quiet moment each morning to power the watch. This ritual forges a direct connection between the owner and the machine, a tangible link to the history and craftsmanship beating inside this exceptional and rare piece.

What Our Clients Say About Us

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….
