  • 圖錄文章

    If in the 1940s and 1950s there was ever such a thing as a Patek Philippe sports-watch, then reference 565 must probably be it. Launched in 1938, it features a robust steel case made out of one piece only plus the screw-on case back for increased protection against humidity and water.

    The present watch started life in 1942, as confirmed by Patek Philippe’s Archives, but returned in the spring of 1950 when it received a new (the present) steel case no. 658’048 together with the timeless off-white dial with facetted white gold baton hour markers.

    Thanks to its straightforward and timeless case design, and its larger diameter of nearly 35mm, it is today as contemporary as it must have been over half a century ago.

    This example here has not been exposed to repeated polishing as the edge surrounding the bezel is sharp and well preserved, and the dial appears to be in all original and unrestored condition.
