Description

Sellers Comments: This WG 3796D, with hobnail bezel, sold in 2000, is in excellent condition, at least to my middle aged eyes. It is well cared for, stored carefully when not worn, and worn in rotation with numerous other watches. Maintenance is regular and appropriate. I have no complaints whatsoever with this fine watch; it is simply time for a change. For that matter, I will consider trades for a WG or RG 3919. I am well known with numerous references within the horological community, and assume that you are also. If additional information or pictures would be helpful, please let me know. Location is Boston MA. e-mail: [Email address suppressed for privacy]. William Cooke. Not sure why e-mail shows up as private; it is available through TZ.

Watch Condition: Very good; no scratches other than shirt cuff hairlines to my eye. Dial and movement excellent.

The watch houses the manual-wind caliber 215 movement, providing 44 hours of power reserve. The 31mm platinum case incorporates a smooth bezel design and sapphire crystal.

The manual-wind movement and traditional proportions align with collectors focused on classical dress watch specifications from this manufacturing period.

Best Patek for Daily Wear?
Dear Forum, I've been thinking of consolidating my collection of typical daily wearers (Speedmaster, JLC Reverso Grande Taille, & Sea Dweller) and going for a simple Patek model like the 3919 or 3796 with the 215 manual movement or a basic automatic as in 3802 for every day wear.
