Specialist note

This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

Consigned by a private collector, the present reference 5070 is fresh to the market and furthermore preserved in unpolished and very good overall condition. It is believed that only 1’000 pieces have been produced in yellow gold from which approximately 87 came back to the market.

Reference 5070

Reference 5070, Patek Philippe’s first chronograph-only model since decades, was launched in 1998. It was first produced exclusively in yellow gold which was replaced in 2001 by the white gold version. The pink gold variant was launched in 2003, platinum in 2008.

It is fitted with the calibre 27-70 movement, based on the Nouvelle Lemania ébauche especially developed for Patek Philippe.

With its case diameter of 42 mm. reference 5070 is, together with the Sky Moon Tourbillon ref. 5002 the largest watch in Patek Philippe’s production
