拍品資料及來源

The Ref. 3970 was created following the success of the exceptional and iconic Ref. 2499. The design of the case of Ref. 3970, with its down-turned, fluted lugs, is clearly influenced by the form of the Ref. 2499. One main difference between the two models is the addition of the leap year indicator to the 3 o'clock subsidiary dial and 24-hour indicator to the 9 o'clock subsidiary dial.

Ref. 3970 was first launched in 1986 with a snap-on case back; Patek Philippe modified the design two years later to a screw-down water resistant type case back, which is the Ref 3970E.  The Ref. 3970E (for étanche or water-resistant) was produced in yellow, white and rose gold, as well as platinum.

The Ref. 3970, along with its predecessors the 2499 and 1518, holds a significant position in the eyes of complicated Patek Philippe watch collectors today.  Ref. 3970 was discontinued and replaced by Ref. 5970 in 2004.
