The present reference 3970EP-021 from the fourth series is offered by the family of the original owner and furthermore distinguished by its excellent overall condition. The combination of the platinum case with a silvered dial lends the model a particularly elegant and appealing aesthetic.
Reference 3970
The Patek Philippe reference 3970 was introduced as the replacement for the renowned reference 2499, which is considered by many to be the greatest perpetual calendar wristwatch ever made. Manufactured until 2004, reference 3970 was produced in four different series, each of which included minor design changes. The present example is part of the fourth series, of which it is estimated that about 2'000 were made.
While production of reference 3970 and 3971 may have ended twenty years ago, these models have already achieved the status of modern classics and have become a must-have for the discerning collector of complicated wristwatches.
