Patek Philippe

The captivating perpetual calendar chronographs created by Patek Philippe have always been highly admired by collectors of intricate timepieces. The legacy of these chronographs, which began with the reference 1518 in the early 1940s, continues to thrive with its harmonious dial arrangement and traditional case design.

Introduced in 2004, the reference 5970 is considered a modern classic and holds the distinction of being the first watch conceptualized by Thierry Stern, the current president of Patek Philippe. Stern aimed to create a timepiece that would bridge the gap between his father's generation, represented by Philippe Stern, and the current generation. The present model in platinum exemplifies this collection. To the best of our knowledge, the 5970 was only manufactured in platinum for two years, specifically from 2009 to 2010, with fewer than 500 pieces produced. This makes it the rarest variant among the four different precious metals available. Featuring a black dial, contrasting tachymeter scale, and leaf-shaped hands, the present model exudes a remarkable presence when worn on the wrist.
