Patek Philippe 570G

Simplicity at its very essence..... launched in the 1930s and produced for over 30 years. The 570, at 35mm, was a big step-up in size from the Calatrava 96. Sweep centre seconds. Characteristic flat bezel. Beautiful in any metal, but it talks to me especi...  

rainy days in the UK.......not so rare though!

So many watches we see with internet and all what is shared by collectors, owners, fans etc... but these older references have something very special. You know how to hunt these Joe.... Thanks for the wonderfully taken picture Cheers, Mark

Marvelous shot

Of a killer watch. I am loving the 570 more and more. Now I can't decide between sweep seconds or centre seconds. I am leaning toward the second version. Thoughts? E

no wrong decision there [nt]

Simple. What more do you need. Just the time.

A true epitome of the bauhaus principal. Handsome and elegant watch. Cheers my friend with royal lineage. Geross.

Ooooh boy!

Elegant white metal case Indexes around the dial, doubled at 12 - no digits Minutes marked by those dots Dauphine hands Yes please!!! Pretty much my definition of perfection. I would just consider losing the second hand for a sub-second at 6. Manual or a ... 

Wonderful shot of a beautiful watch! [nt]

a near perfect Calatrava

It does not look at all like 35 mm on the wrist: more like 37 or even 38. As a classic watch size lover: a great catch! Best Moritz

yes....

.....it wears much bigger thanks mainly to the nature of the bezel. A core piece.
