US$15,000-20,000

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with rose dial and raised hour markers in steel in 1942 and its subsequent sale on 27 November 1942.


Reference 565, the first large water-resistant watch featuring a two-piece case with screw back and dust cover, was available with either subsidiary or sweep centre seconds. The timelessly modern design of reference 565 served as inspiration for the creation of the 2006 stainless steel inaugural reference 5565.
