Reference 3970
Introduced in 1986, reference 3970 enjoyed a production until 2004. Over 18 years of production, the 3970 underwent three major transformations. Watches from the first generation of reference 3970 were fitted with a snap on solid back comprising approximately 100 examples. The second series introduced a solid screw back, designated reference 3970E (E for étanche, French for waterproof). In 1989, a third series of reference 3970, as the present watch, was launched, fitted with a solid screw back as well as an additional sapphire crystal display screw back.
Reference 3970 and calibre 27-70 Q are illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, pp. 305 – 308.
