Reference 3848 joined the line in 1977 and carried that pure two-hand formula through the 1990s, driven by Patek Philippe's slim manual-wind Caliber 215, the same movement Patek used in the Calatrava 3796.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarm Toning On Elliptical Gold\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis piece is in Excellent Vintage Condition overall, with sharp elliptical proportions and warm gold oxidation on the caseback. The 18K yellow gold case holds crisp lines with natural rosy toning. The smooth bezel surrounds a clean blue sunburst dial with crisp gold markers and clean hands, and the sapphire crystal is clear.
