NGC 3242 sets at virtually the same time as the Sun, just fifty degrees to the South. It seems unlikely it was visible at this time of year. In fact, since the NGC catalog is generally organized in increasing right ascension, it seems unlikely that anything in the 32XX range would have been visible. I'd ask what object it was if I were you.
