{"product_id":"patek-3879","title":"Patek Philippe Golden Ellipse Jumbo Ref. 3879 18K Yellow Gold Box \u0026 Papers","description":"\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eReference 3879 dates to Patek Philippe’s quartz-era dress-watch production of the late 20th century, with auction records documenting examples from around 1980-81. The reference is distinguished by its broad cushion-shaped precious-metal case, stepped bezel, restrained baton dial, and simple two-hand display. Powered by Patek Philippe’s E27 quartz caliber, the 3879 represents a particularly clean period of the manufacture’s dress-watch design, pairing traditional gold construction with the quartz technology Patek Philippe was incorporating into its collection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis example features an approximately 36 mm 18K yellow-gold case with a champagne-tone dial, applied baton hour markers, outer minute track, and central hour and minute hands. Inside is Patek Philippe’s caliber E27 quartz movement. The watch is currently fitted with a new blue denim\/jean-style strap, and the buckle is not original to the watch. It is accompanied by its Patek Philippe box and original papers. A Patek Philippe caseback sticker also remains present on the watch.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe watch is in overall very nice condition and presents cleanly on the wrist. The yellow-gold case shows light signs of wear consistent with careful use. Slight discoloration can be seen on the dial around approximately the 1 and 7 o’clock positions, although it is relatively subtle and not too noticeable on the wrist. The presentation box shows age-related wear from storage. Please review the photographs closely for the most complete representation of condition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Watch Them Tick","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50512929259763,"sku":null,"price":16450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/0932\/3251\/files\/PXL_20260821_131301342.jpg?v=1787329681","url":"https:\/\/watchthemtick.com\/products\/patek-3879","provider":"Watch Them Tick","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
