With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with silvered dial and raised hour markers in steel in 1946 and its subsequent sale on 21 November 1946.

The particularity of this reference 565 is its dial layout, consisting of applied "long" baton numerals and small outer beady minute markers, a variant rarely seen on this model.

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.
