"Back winder"
in 18k white gold execution

date of manufacture: approx. 1969

Patek Philippe introduced the reference 3569 around 1969. This model was the manufacturer's first "backwinder" wristwatch with winding and time setting on the back of the case.
This elegant Calatrava Backwinder in white gold execution features a stunningly beautiful dial with striking blued white gold indices in beautiful original condition. The 18k white gold case, with a diameter of approximately 36 mm has an attractive combination of satined and mirror polished parts.
The refined bezel decoration matches the textured dial, a combination that gives the timepiece a special character. The wristwatch is equipped with a rotor-winding caliber 350. The caliber 350 operates at a frequency of 21600 vibrations per hour and the automatic winding is wound in both directions. The high-quality 12.5 lignes movement has a diameter of 28 mm, it is adjusted to temperature and five positions and has Geneva stripe decoration. The movement features a peripherally mounted, ball-bearing rotor (CH Patent No. 458213 from 1968). All bridges and cocks bevelled, which corresponds to the highest quality of manufacture and craftsmanship.
The movement was professionally serviced in-house in March 2025, it is fully functional and in a very good working condition. The watch is very well maintained and is in top technical and optical condition.
The watch has been checked for running behavior, originality and function. The buyer receives a 12-month warranty on the function.
