Patek Philippe Ref. 3448J "Padellone"
Famously worn by Andy Warhol - the Patek Philippe Ref. 3448 is as much a collectors piece as it is a work of sculptural design. Its odd shape and size (large for the era) earned it the nickname “Padellone” amongst Italian collectors - signifying “frying pan”.
This particular 3448J comes with a Spanish Calendar, a rarity as these were usually made on special request for important clients. The watch was retailed by Beyer and is accompanied by a Certificate from Beyer confirming the sale of the watch in 1973 - and an extract from the Archives of Patek Philippe.
