Specialist note

Reference 3970
Patek Philippe's celebrated reference 3970 was launched in 1986 and replaced reference 2499 (please see Lot 2454 in this sale). The first generation was fitted with snap on case backs. Around 1989, the model was modified to a water-resistant version with screw back and was delivered with an additional glazed display back. Reference 3970 remained in production until 2004 when it was replaced by reference 5970 (please see Lot 2630 in this sale).
