With Patek Philippe Extract from the Archives confirming production of the present watch with silvered dial and raised gold hour markers in 1938 and its subsequent sale on 31 August 1939.

Reference 665 was launched in 1937 and discontinued no later than 1940. So far only known from archival images, the present watch is believed to be the first example of this reference to appear in public to date.
