Reference 3445 is more than just an exquisite dress watch—it was the first automatic watch with a date that Patek Philippe ever produced in series. At the time this watch was made, people typically owned a single watch for all occasions and relied heavily on it, so it was very practical for this timepiece to feature a date and an automatic movement.
