Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar Chronograph, 5970G-001

The Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar Chronograph 5970G-001 belongs to the Grand Complications collection and combines a perpetual calendar with a chronograph in one round wristwatch. It is aimed at collectors and wearers interested in mechanical watchmaking who want both calendar and timing functions on the wrist. The 40 mm case is made of white gold, and the watch runs on a manual movement. This example is used, pre-owned, rated Very Good, and supplied with its original box and original papers.

Because the movement is manual, the watch is wound by hand, and the chronograph is started, stopped, and reset through the pushers on the case. The perpetual calendar displays sit on the silver dial, so calendar information and elapsed timing can be read from the same face. The 40 mm white gold case defines the watch's footprint, while the leather strap and sapphire crystal form the parts that contact the wrist and cover the dial. Water resistance is rated at 3 ATM, which refers to resistance to splashes rather than swimming or diving. The round case and silver dial give the watch a formal appearance suited to business or evening wear.
