  • 圖錄文章

    In the history of horology, Patek Philippe’s Calatrava wristwatch has stood as a monument to design excellence and has remained in its collection since the reference 96 was first released in 1932. It is a model that needs no introduction and was offered at a time of change and upheaval for a brand that today is at the pinnacle of Swiss watch manufacturing. In order to ensure the financial success of the firm, the brand chose to design a mainstream model, which would have a broad appeal to the general public. The watch which they offered was the reference 96 Calatrava, named for the cross symbol used by Calatrava knights in the 12th century, and registered by Patek Philippe as its logo in 1887.

    The reference 570 is a descendant of the ref 96; keeping its elder’s design language, it offers a larger diameter and a personality of its own. Reference 570 is a potent mix of sophistication and simplicity. A rather large watch, it has been nicknamed "Calatravone" (Italian for large Calatrava), its timeless design with large flat bezel and thick lugs made it a staple within the Patek Phillipe catalogue from 1938 till its discontinuation in 1972.

    The reference 570 was cased predominantly in yellow gold and rarely in pink gold, white gold, stainless steel and platinum and featured a multitude of dial variations.

    The present “pink on pink” example impresses by reason of its superb state of preservation, the pink gold case with original brushed and polished surfaces and, two very strong hallmarks. The two-tone pink dial – confirmed by the Extract from the Archives- stands out with vibrant colors and crisp raised enamel signature.

    This example furthermore features an indirect center seconds mechanism - an exceedingly rare complication for the reference. As the result of a collaboration between Victorin Piguet and Patek Philippe, this ébauche featured an additional centre seconds mechanism that was ingeniously added to the existing 12'''120 subsidiary seconds register movement, attesting to both firms’ technical superiority.

    In fact, this case/dial/movement combination is extremely rare, of the 36 pink gold case with pink dial reference 570s known, only 5 have an indirect seconds mechanism.
