拍品专文

With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch in 1957 and its subsequent sale on 15 October 1958.

The present watch stands out by its excellent original overall condition. The case is full and retains its original case proportions to the best extent, reflected by the sharp edges to bezel and lugs and the crisp gold marks. The dial has never been restored or cosmetically enhanced in any way. The hard enamel signature is, consequently, as raised as the connoisseur would expect.

The large Calatrava model reference 570 was introduced into the market in 1938, featuring either subsidiary or sweep centre seconds. It was available in stainless steel, yellow, pink and white gold and platinum.
