--> Description Perpetual Calendar ref 3940J in yellow gold ‘Second Series’, box and guarantee, circa 1988 Patek Philippe Brand: Patek Philippe Model: Perpetual Calendar Year: circa 1988 Reference: 3940 Dial: Silver Case No.: 771.xxx Movement: Automatic Cal: 240Q Material: 18k yellow gold Strap: Leather with original gold buckle Size: 37mm Accessories: Box and guarantee --> More information The watch presented is a splendid and refined Perpetual Calendar reference 3940J in yellow gold with original box and guarantee. This particular watch has a rare dial that is part of the first part of the second series, very different from the later second series and much rarer. One can in fact notice the very large ‘Sigma’. The main difference from the first series is the modification of the counters, with bevelled edges, while retaining the blind snap-in caseback. A much sought-after reference for collectors, the 3940 is perhaps one of the most important neo-vintage models ever made by Patek Philippe and is a great buying opportunity for a collector who wants a watch complete with original box and guarantee.
