Patek Philippe Ref. 3919/010 – Ice Cube Tray Bracelet
Here we have what is arguably one of the rarest executions of the Patek Philippe Ref. 3919. Unlike the many examples with the additional reference designation /010, this particular version does not feature a Milanese bracelet, but rather a highly unusual gold bracelet in the so-called Ice Cube Tray design.
Dial
The dial is finished in a bright white lacquer and remains in excellent condition. There are no cracks in the lacquer or other signs of damage. Typical of Patek Philippe, the hands are manually blackened and show a subtle purple hue depending on the light. The small seconds are perfectly positioned at 6 o’clock, with the characteristic “SWISS” signature directly below.
Case
The case measures 33 mm, identical to the classic Ref. 3919. The overall construction is also based on the familiar design, featuring the characteristic Clous de Paris bezel. However, this version does away with the traditional officer-style lugs, with the gold bracelet being integrated directly into the case, making this an exceptionally rare configuration.
The bracelet features a classic construction on the underside, while the front is composed of small individual squares finished with an extremely fine ridged texture. This elaborate construction creates the distinctive Ice Cube Tray appearance of the bracelet.
Set
The watch comes together with its Certificate of Origin and the First Buyers Receipt. It was originally sold in Austria, and the specifications on the certificate clearly confirm that this particular model was delivered from the factory with this gold bracelet.
A highly collectible example of an already rare reference — and a particularly unusual configuration that perfectly captures the current appreciation for distinctive integrated gold bracelets.
