Notes
Introduced in 1998, the Patek reference 5070 made a significant impact on the market a s a new and simplified chronograph, breaking a nearly 40-year gap since their last release. Encased in a generous 42mm size, equipped with the Lemania-based 27-70, it was offered in only four versions: yellow gold with a black dial, pink gold with a silver dial, white gold with a silver dial, and platinum with a blue dial.
The white gold variation stands out with its contrasting silver dial and black inscriptions, featuring numerals that differ in colour from the case. Produced for a brief period of six years, from 2002 to 2008.
