Catalogue Essay
Introduced in 1998, the Patek Philippe reference 5070 is the first chronograph-only wristwatch since the famed reference 1463 was discontinued in the 1960s. Historically important, the Patek Philippe reference 5070 was the last chronograph to employ the caliber 27-70 CHR based on the Lemania 2310 stamped with the Geneva seal.
Featuring an oversized 42mm case diameter, the black attractive dial features matching gold graphics and applied Arabic numerals. Released in a total of four metals, the present configuration is arguably the most desirable in terms of its colour combination and its homage to the legendary piece-unique ref. 2512.
Possibly one of the firm’s most undervalued references, the present Patek Philippe reference 5070 from 2004 is preserved in excellent overall condition and is accompanied by its certificate of origin and presentation box.
