Catalogue Note
The accompanying Extract from the Patek Philippe Archives confirms that this wristwatch was assembled in 1968 and sold on April 20th, 1982.
Reference 1570 was manufactured between 1943 and 1947. Our research shows that the case of the present wristwatch was delivered to Patek Philippe in 1946 or 1947. The Extract shows production of the wristwatch in 1968, so the watch would at that time have been 'new old stock'.
