With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1958 and its subsequent sale on 22 August 1958.
The present watch is a reference 2570/1 and is, moreover, an early example of a Patek Philippe antimagnetic wristwatch. Following in the footsteps of antimagnetic reference 3417, which is regarded as the company's first antimagnetic wristwatch produced in series and was only available in stainless steel, the reference 2570/1 was introduced in 1958 and produced in yellow and pink gold. As confirmed by the Extract, this watch dates from the start of the production, i.e. 1958.
Kept in generally very good original condition, this watch has clearly been a cherished timepiece. The gilt soft-iron cap is also original to the piece and engraved with the case number. Over the years, many antimagnetic watches have lost their inner soft-iron cap, which could resist magnetic fields up to 450 oersteds. It is, therefore, highly appealing for any collector to know that the watch is complete.
To the best of our knowledge, this is only the 11th known example of the reference with calibre 12'''400AM.
For another example of a reference 2570/1 see Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, p. 194.
