24. A fne and rare yellow gold perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch with moonphases Manufacturer Year 1990 Reference No. Patek Philippe 3970E Movement No. 875’575 Case No. 2’860’468 Material Calibre Bracelet/Strap Clasp/Buckle Dimensions Signed Estimate CHF 50,000-70,000 $49,500-69,400 €46,300-64,800 18K yellow gold Manual, cal. CH 27-70Q, 24 jewels Leather 18K yellow gold Patek Philippe pin buckle 36mm. Diameter Case, dial, movement and buckle signed Accessories Accompanied by Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confrming production of the present watch in 1990 and its subsequent sale on May 31st, 1990. Literature This reference is illustrated in Patek Philippe Wristwatches by Martin Huber & Alan Banbery, second edition, p. 305. <strong>The</strong> Patek Philippe reference 3970 is a worthy heir to the iconic lineage of Patek Philippe perpetual calendar chronographs, which started in 1941 with reference 1518. Launched in 1986 and in production until 2004, reference 3970 replaced reference 2499. Both models shared certain features such as pump pushers and down turned stepped lugs. However, reference 3970 presented certain details, enabling it to proudly step into contemporary horology. It replaced the Valjoux movement of its predecessors with a heavily modifed Lemania 2310 ébauche dubbed CH 27-70Q. Furthermore, two new indications were added to ref 3970, a leap year indication and a 24 hour hand. Reference 3970 underwent three signifcant transformations. While the frst series featured a snap on caseback, the second series displayed baton markers, feuille hands and a screw back. It was produced concurrently with reference 3971 which had a snap on sapphire back. Finally the third series merged references 3970 and 3971 and ofered two screwed case backs: sapphire and solid. <strong>The</strong> present lot, part of the second series of which only 64 are known, is preserved in overall excellent condition and will appeal to the collector looking for a timepiece representing Patek Philippe’s unparalleled history in the feld of perpetual calendar chronographs.
