Specialist note
The reference 570 is one of the most appreciated and well-known vintage watches by Patek Philippe. Introduced in 1938, it is the "bigger brother" of reference 96. It remained in production until 1972.
With a 35.5 mm. diameter, the reference 570 was quite a large watch for the time, but it is the perfect size for the modern wrist. Furthermore, the flat bezel gives the watch an overall large profile when worn on the wrist in particular with the bold 20mm lug gauge for the strap. Offered for the first time publically, this is a very attractive example of a 'pink on pink' reference 570.
