Lot Essay

Production of the 5070 in white gold began in 2001. It followed the first production for this reference which was in yellow gold and it preceded the production of pink gold and finally platinum.

Each color was made in approximately 1000 examples, except for platinum which was in a lesser quantity of approximately 500 examples. With a substantial diameter of 42mm, this is one of the largest watches ever produced by Patek Philippe.
