Catalogue Essay
- First unveiled at Baselworld in 1998, the Patek Philippe reference 5070 made a bold statement in the world of traditional watch collecting with its modern design and larger-than-usual case size. This release was a milestone for the brand, marking a fresh chapter to its chronograph models; since the release of the reference 1463, Patek Philippe had not released a simple chronograph.
- The reference 5070 stands out with its 42mm water-resistant case, featuring a screw-down case back and a distinctive stepped bezel that seamlessly blends contemporary style with classic elegance. As one of Patek Philippe's largest watches, it also holds historical significance as the last model to use a modified Lemania 2310-based ébauche. Its design takes cues from the unique reference 2512, an oversized split-seconds chronograph from 1950, now part of the Patek Philippe Museum collection.
- Offered in four case materials—yellow gold, pink gold, white gold, and platinum—the reference 5070 is believed to have been produced in limited numbers. This 2009 white gold example, in exceptional condition and accompanied by its accessories, is a rare and exciting opportunity for discerning collectors.
