Patek Philippe 5970/1P-011

Perpetual calendar Chronograph

Sunday, 26 April 2020

Platinum. Bracelet. Lemania-based movement. The 5970/1P is the reference that collectors spend years searching for and sometimes never find. It's the predecessor to the 5270, the last Patek perpetual calendar chronograph to use the modified Lemania calibre, and in this configuration it may be the single most collectible modern Patek wristwatch.

Collector's Note

The 5970 on platinum bracelet. Full stop. This is the reference that serious PCC collectors search for years to find. The Lemania-based movement, the bracelet configuration, the platinum case — every variable is at its rarest. It anchors the PCC sub-collection alongside the 5270R and 5270P in a way that no substitute can.
