Patek Philippe A very fine and rare white gold perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch with moon phases, additional case back, original certificate and fitted presentation box
40mm. Diameter
Introduced to the market at Baselworld in 2005 to replace the preceding reference 3970, the reference 5970 was in production until 2010. The model enjoyed overnight success and continued to be one of the most coveted watches amongst watch connoisseurs.
The present reference 5970 is a noteworthy heir to Patek Phillipe’s perpetual calendar chronograph series. The reference 5970 was Patek Philippe's very last perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch series to use a Lemania 2310-based caliber and the last to feature the Geneva seal on the movement. The beautifully crafted 18K white gold 40-mm. case and facetted lugs definitely bestow the watch with a grand and sophisticated aura. The white gold version has gained worldwide popularity thanks to its imposing looks.
The reference 5970 has always been widely popular since its debut, and has increased in popularity and collectability after its discontinuation. Completed with Certificate of Origin, a wooden fitted presentation box, additional caseback and hang tag, the present lot is an exceptional opportunity for watch collectors to possess an unbeatable masterpiece.
