Description

The lineage of the 5970 goes back to the great-great grandfather reference 1518 (1941-1954), followed by the reference 2499 (1950-1985), the reference 3970 (1985-2004) and then our model the 5970 (2004-2010) and finally the current production model on the Patek Philippe catalogue the reference 5270 (2010- ).

 

The present watch reference 5970P-001 is the platinum version from the 5970 series, this discontinued model houses the last non-manufacture perpetual calendar movement, it is based on a Lemania ébauche although heavily modified and finished by Patek Philippe.   It is considered to be one of the best designed cases by the Genevian watchmaker.

Our watch, will take you back in a “time machine” almost a decade when you see it, the condition is absolutely brand new, it was sleeping in a safe for the past few years, one can only admire the flawless original birth condition, shape of the platinum case, buckle and strap.

This timepiece has a 40mm case that is surrounding a fantastic black dial with white inscriptions. The Perpetual calendar function is displayed by three counters and a double window at 12 o’clock. The manual winding chronograph movement is visible through the sapphire crystal case-back,  it has a power-reserve of 60 hours.

This example of the perpetual calendar chronograph is certainly the most desired watch and this model one of the very sought after modern timepiece from Patek Philippe.
