The Patek Philippe Reference 570 is one of the most loved and collectible vintage Calatrava’s due case size at 35mm. Over its 30 year production period beginning in 1938, the reference came in assortment of case materials and dial options.

The present lot embodies Bauhaus design in its strive for perfection at functional minimalism. At first glance, the timepiece may seem like a simple time-only wristwatch, however, the beauty is found within the details. For example, a closer inspection of the dial will reveal decagonal surface indices and engraved 18k white gold filled minute pearls. These hand-finished elements of the watch can only be appreciated when examined closely and epitomize the charm of vintage Patek Philippe wristwatches.
