Catalogue Essay
- Introduced in 1941, the Patek Philippe ref. 1518 was the world’s first serially produced perpetual calendar chronograph and laid the foundation for a lineage of legendary models—including the 2499, 3970, and the present reference 5970.
- Launched in 2004 and produced for just seven years, the 5970 marked the final Patek perpetual chronograph powered by a Lemania-based movement. With its balanced 40mm case, facetted lugs, and classic dial layout featuring moonphase and aperture displays, it has become one of the most celebrated and collectible modern Patek complications.
- This pink gold 5970 is offered in exceptional condition and comes complete with its Certificate of Origin and additional solid caseback—an increasingly rare opportunity to own one of the great modern icons in Patek Philippe’s history.
