Patek Philippe
Chronograph
5070P - Platinum
Introduced in 1998, the reference 5070 marked a pivotal moment for Patek Philippe as its first standalone chronograph since the 1960s, following the discontinuation of the legendary reference 1463. This bold return to chronograph-only timepieces was distinguished by its substantial 42mm case and distinctive stepped bezel, an homage to the revered reference 2512, which boasted an impressive 46.2 mm diameter. The 5070 masterfully integrates a variety of design influences, from Art Deco-inspired contours to the bold, aviator-style aesthetics of its dial.
What truly sets the reference 5070 apart is its status as the last Patek Philippe chronograph to feature the esteemed Lemania 2310 movement before the brand transitioned to an in-house caliber with its successor, the ref. 5170. To celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2008, the 5070 was introduced in an exclusive platinum case, elevating its desirability. With only approximately 250 platinum examples produced, this timepiece remains one of the most sought-after chronographs ever created, with less than 20 examples having appeared at auction.
The solid platinum 42mm case is refined with stepped detailing, and the striking slate-blue dial, with blued hands and crisp white subdials, remains beautifully balanced and restrained. Displayed through its open case back is the manual-wound CH 27-70 Calibre with 60hrs power-reserve. Fitted to a new blue alligator Patek strap and fastened by its solid platinum folding clasp.
We are pleased to offer this outstanding example, complete with its Patek Philippe wooden box, instruction manual, additional literature, document wallet and its Certificate of Origin, dated October 2008. Covered by our 2-year warranty.
