The **Calatrava, Ref. 3520** is a classic dress watch from [[Patek Philippe]]. This was the first Clous de Paris (or "hobnail") bezel incarnation of the classic [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 96|Ref. 96 Calatrava]].

Patek Philippe had created dozens of variations on the classic [[Patek Philippe Calatrava|Calatrava]] design by the 1970's, but the [[1973]] introduction of Ref. 3520 had a novel design: Some models featured [[Clous de Paris]] [[guilloche]] decorating the bezel. This would become a signature feature of the Calatrava, overshadowing the classic Ref. 96 look in the minds of many enthusiasts. This was paired with a simple round case and straight lugs, a design which some earlier Calatrava models had used.

Ref. 3520 is a simple watch with just hour and minute hands. It uses the hand-wound [[PP 177|Cal. 177]]. The dial originally featured simple markers but Roman numerals and Arabic numerals were used as well.

A larger, automatic version, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 3590|Ref. 3590]] was introduced shortly after, along with a quartz model, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 3744|Ref. 3722]]. Today, [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5116|Ref. 5119]] (small seconds), [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 5120|Ref. 5120]] (no seconds), and [[Patek Philippe Calatrava 7119|Ref. 7119]] (ladies) inherit the Clous de Paris look.
