The present reference 3585 is very rare in white gold, with the majority being cased in yellow gold. Exemplifying the aesthetics of the 1970s, it is now an undisputed vintage classic.
The 3585 features back winding and hand-setting, an unusual choice for a gentleman’s watch at the time but necessitated by the bidirectional peripheral winding rotor of the caliber 350 movement, used between 1969 and 1985, which precluded the use of a traditional winding stem. This design allowed Patek Philippe to be more experimental, resulting in a case profile with clean lines and bold proportions. The true highlight of the present timepiece is its beautiful blue dial with a textured finish.
