Reference 3563 was introduced in the market in 1969; production continued until about 1986. Due to its back winding crown this is a model favoured by both right- and left-handed wearers.
The elegance and style of the Calatrava model is forever unrivalled; the range was introduced in the early 1930 and this cult icon has lost none of its character over time.
