Fresh to the market, the present platinum version, in virtually "mint" condition and with all of its accessories originally supplied, is a premium example from this very exclusive series since it has never been offered in public before and comes from a very distinguished private collection. In fact, until today not even ten examples of reference 5970P have been offered at auction, underlining its rarity. Despite having only 2 years of age it is already today considered a great classic and will not only provide enormous pleasure on its future owner's wrist, but will also be a pillar in any collection focusing on Patek Philippe's history of complicated wristwatches.
