An Avant garde Patek...
After a long time of collecting the Patek ref 3424 remains perhaps my most favourite of all; the reference from the 1960's and one of 5 asymetric models designed by the Genevan jeweller Gilbert Albert was and still is in my humble opinion avant garde and a true classic that isn't seen too often and I have yet to come across someone wearing one!
