110 Patek Philippe Follow Ref. 5970 A fine and rare platinum perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch with moon phases, additional case back, original certificate and fitted presentation box 2009 40mm. Diameter Case, dial, movement and clasp signed
Manufacturer: Patek Philippe Year: 2009 Reference No: 5970 Movement No: 3'931'470 Case No: 4'491'139 Material: Platinum Calibre: Manual, cal. CH 27-70 Q, 24 jewels Bracelet/Strap: Alligator Clasp/Buckle: Platinum Patek Philippe deployant clasp Dimensions: 40mm. Diameter Signed: Case, dial, movement and clasp signed Accessories: Accompanied by Patek Philippe Certificate of Origin dated 28 November 2009, setting pin, additional case back, pouch, product literature, fitted presentation box and outer packaging. Furthermore accompanied by Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 2009 and its subsequent sale on November 28th, 2009. Catalogue Essay Manufactured from 2004 to 2011, reference 5970 was Patek Philippe's very last perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch series to use a Lemania 2310 based movement. With the introduction of successor reference 5270, Patek Philippe used its own in-house movement. Due to its generous and modern case proportions, this reference is a favorite among the watch community. Since the model stopped production, it has only increased in popularity and collectability. Compared to its predecessor, reference 3970, reference 5970 has a much larger and heftier case size of 40 millimeters. While the reference has enjoyed variations such as different gem-set bezels and various dial designs, examples cased in platinum like this watch are the true classics. The black dial immediately distinguishes the case metal, as does the subtle diamond between 6 o'clock - both indicate Patek Philippe's use of platinum. Fresh to the auction market, the present watch is offered with an additional case back, setting pin and its original certificate. Preserved in pristine condition, it must have been worn only once or twice throughout its lifespan. Read More Maker Bio Patek Philippe Swiss • 1839 Follow Since its founding in 1839, this famous Geneva-based firm has been surprising its clientele with superbly crafted timepieces fitted with watchmaking's most prestigious complications. Traditional and conservative designs are found across Patek Philippe's watches made throughout their history — the utmost in understated elegance. Well-known for the Graves Supercomplication — a highly complicated pocket watch that was the world’s most complicated watch for 50 years — this family-owned brand has earned a reputation of excellence around the world. Patek's complicated vintage watches hold the highest number of world records for results achieved at auction compared with any other brand. For collectors, key models include the reference 1518, the world's first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph, and its successor, the reference 2499. Other famous models include perpetual calendars such as the ref. 1526, ref. 3448 and 3450, chronographs such as the reference 130, 530 and 1463, as well as reference 1436 and 1563 split seconds chronographs. Patek is also well-known for their classically styled, time-only "Calatrava" dress watches, and the "Nautilus," an iconic luxury sports watch first introduced in 1976 as the reference 3700 that is still in production today.
