Patek Philippe ref. 3670A-001
When I reviewed the ref. 5950 & 5951, seven months ago, I left aside a reference which is closely related to them design wise: the ref. 3670A-001.
In 2011, Patek Philippe decided to place into a steel 37 mm cushion case, reminiscent of their original wristwatch chronographs, 16 unused caliber 13-130 movements dating to 1955 and found back in 1996 in an old wooden chest on the 5th floor of their historic home. Ref. 3670A-001 was born, limited to 16 pieces.

These are absolutely stunning.
I really like the balance of the dial (non drooping sub registers). 😁
That's one fine PP
It shouldn't work yet it does. Splendid pictures too. I had to look it up price wise, not for the faint of heart!
Only 16 pieces in steel with an iconic vintage movement:
I didn't check the hammered prices at auction but it must be quite insane... Best, Emmanuel
Hi Emmanuel, this reference has a well balanced dial !
Love the dial color of the first photo. What is the exact color called ?
All I can say is..
Gugugu gaagagaga……🤯. …..Meaning it’s my grail modern Patek. Perfection!!
I agree: an understated masterpiece.
But with only 16 pieces, it's for the very happy few... Best, Emmanuel
I had the pleasure to try out once...the most refined complicated timepiece in steel case - infectious I must confess !
thanks to a private collector from Asia for letting tryout this inspiring timepiece ! Best, mahesh., ...
Lucky you, Mahesh!
Thanks for sharing the pics of this epic try on of the 5950/1A-010 (split second monopusher)! Best, Emmanuel
Similar but not the same one mon ami
Emmanuel is talking about 3670/1A which is an amazing chronograph with 13-130 vintage caliber, while the one from our friend is a ref 5950A-001 so also in steel but it’s a mono pusher split chronograph with caliber 27-525PS (first seen on the iconic ref 5...
I think this wonderful blue dial variant is ref. 5950/1A-010.
I've listed all the 5950 & 5951 in a previous post here: www.watchprosite.com / The 3670A-001 is another kind of gem, even if very close design wise. Grail level, just as the 5950, without a doubt. Best, Emmanuel
The watch is absolutely beautiful.
But this movement is just insane. The design and details are out of this world.
Yes, they've done everything right, here.
Unfortunately, only 16 pieces... Best, Emmanuel
What an amazing timepiece 👍🏼
Would be a great couple with my 5940! ....just dreaming 😍
Yes, a dream.
And a reality for the very, very, happy few: the hammered price in 2024 was over a million CFH: www.phillips.com 2 Best, Emmanuel
