Patek Philippe
Calatrava
Ref. 570


EUR 34.900,-

The Patek Philippe Ref. 570 is one of the most iconic wristwatches in the art of watchmaking. With its generous 35.5 mm case, it already embodied a modern aesthetic in the 1930s that continues to inspire today. Its purist design, harmonious proportions and legendary simplicity make it one of Patek Philippe's most coveted vintage watches. As a larger version of the classic Ref. 96, the Ref. 570 remains a symbol of timeless elegance and collector's passion - a watch for true connoisseurs. White gold examples are particularly coveted, as most of this reference was produced in yellow gold. This rare design, combined with the exceptionally good condition and the beautiful patina of the dial, makes it a real treasure for collectors.

The return of the 80s

Everything comes back. At some point. Even my grandmother knew that and the more mature you become, the more you realise: damn, it really is like that. When Rolex presented the GMT-Master II as a yellow gold and bicolour version on a Jubilé bracelet last year, I immediately felt something like my own personal Werthers Echte moment. Only not with gold-wrapped caramel sweets, but with the watches I knew from my childhood. And so I still remember, as if it were yesterday, the picture of TV legend Horst Tappert smiling at me from the cover of a TV magazine with a gold GMT on a Jubilee bracelet.

How deep is deep?

When I started wearing watches at a young age, everything was quite simple for me. If the words “Water Resistant” were written on the back cover, you had to be careful. On the other hand, if it said “30M”, everything was fine. Off to the beach with it and have fun. I wore those watches in the sea for years without a care in the world - for swimming, showering and bathing anyway.
