Description
Produced for just a little over six years, the 5970 is the shortest production run perpetual calendar chronograph in the firm’s history. The yellow gold model offered here is very rare and was produced in far smaller quantity than the white and rose gold versions. This watch is new with box and papers, second case back and setting stylus.
The Patek Philippe 5970 is a thoroughly modern interpretation of Patek's classical pairing of the perpetual calendar and chronograph complications. This is a gorgeous watch in every respect. The case is at once more modern and more vintage in appearance than its predecessor (the 3970). It's a bolder, more massive case with vintage lines.
Let's start with the 18k case. The dimensions are 40mm diameter by 13.5mm thick, with three piece construction. The bezel is quite tall and massive, while the center section bows quite broadly to allow room for the large caliber, and the screw down case back seals everything securely. Lugs are flared, which imparts a vintage style, which is reinforced by the rectangular shaped chronograph pushers. The watch is delivered with a sapphire crystal display back. Water resistant to 25 meters.
Dial is white with gold feuille hands and applied hour markers. Days and months are displayed underneath 12 o'clock, nine o'clock subdial displays constant seconds and 24 hour indicator, three o'clock subdial displays leap year and 30 minute chronograph counter, and the moonphase and date are displayed above six o'clock. Tachometer scale at the dial’s periphery.
The Patek Philippe Caliber 27 70 Q is a sight to behold. Manual winding with 24 jewels, power reserve of approximately 55 hours, beating at 18,000 beats per hour. This truly superlative caliber provides a perpetual calendar and column wheel chronograph construction.
Strap is Patek hand-sewn crocodile with an 18k gold Patek deployment clasp.
Watch is new and complete, as can be seen in the pictures below.
