Notes

Introduced in 1998, the Patek reference 5070 made a significant impact on the market as 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 pink gold variation stands out with its contrasting silver white dial and black inscriptions, featuring pink gold Arabic numerals indexes and hands which perfectly matched with the pink gold case. Produced for a brief period of six years, from 2002 to 2008.
