The reference 570 in yellow gold
So here it is - a reference 570 Yellow Gold case with the stamp of Helvetia clearly visible
Short signature on the dial dates it to after 1948
Reference 27sc dates it to after 1949- the 12-120 and the 12-120 sc were phased out after 1949
Enamel signature dates it before around 1955 as after this date approx all dials were stamped with Patek Philippe rather than enamelled- this date is not exactly known
Dial is pretty special=pie pan dial with 3-6-9-12 numerals in gold which was used in the earlier models
Hands are leaf rather than Dauphine
Extract confirms early 1950's
And here are the pics!!

Iโm sure you will have no problem in enjoying this marvel. Dirk
Outstanding watch
all the elements you mention make it special but the outstanding aspect IMO is the enamelled minute track
You own a part of history and the vintage feel is great !
The blue hand is a an excellent touch ! Enjoy this classic beauty often !
Outstanding, Congrats!
Those were the great days when PP hand finished their movements and did not cut corners to reduce costs (and increase production). Compared to today's mass-produced Calatravas.... Hopefully PP gets back to proper quality production for their Calarava mode...
Thatโs why I tend to collect vintage
That old world ethic and flavour are so strong I honestly donโt see it returning Thanks again
This is such a beautiful watch, a beautiful work of art
There are so many things to admire about this watch, starting with those leaf hands. And the blue second hand, so piquant among the other tones. Love it!
What a charming Calatrava ! All the ingredients for falling in loveโฆ๐๐
This rare pan pie dial, the large no logo crown typical for this period, the enamel signature, the blued central second (actually very rare on Calatravas and even more on the 570)โฆ whatโs not to love here ? ๐๐ It reminds me furiously my 2508 which has exa...
With pleasure my friend
I only have for it to come back from Geneva where it is now for service
