"The steel Calatrava is easy to wear and convenient for everyday use, but the weighty feel of the platinum model is hard to pass up."
Could you please clarify what you mean regarding “easy to use” and platinum “is very effective”?
They are both impressive pieces, but they also look like basic time only watches. So i’m curious to understand your points.
Thank you👍🏽. Agreed on all points.
I did a quick look online but couldn’t find hardly any 3796p for sale. Both are excellent pieces!
Hi ArmisT, FYI
I saw one 3796P put up for sales by Subdial (a company from the UK) for £15K abt 3 weeks ago. But it is sold after 1 day they posted online. You can have a look of the watch from its YouTube channel (episode #216).
It just happened that I’ve been looking at these two reference
in the last few months. I can’t decide on which model given the similar price point, size and style, and their availability in my city (HKG). I tried a 3796R a couple of days ago. It looks small on the display shelf, but it wears like a 34mm on my wrist. ...
Two bangers!
I like that east-west dial finish on the 3923. Patek usually goes north-south. In this case I think I have a marginal preference for the 3923. Luckily you don’t have to choose!
I think I would like the smoother case of the 3923
with the copper dial of the 3796! Thanks for the comparison photo. Best, Emmanuel
The sub-dial of each watch
looks great 👍 Double-wristing with this pair is a MUST Shun-san !🤣
On a smaller watch
I much prefer the stronger lines on the 3796. Even though the 3796 may be a tad smaller than the 3923, it does seem to wear larger.
