With its Lemania-based, manually wound chronograph movement, the Patek Philippe Reference 5070 is an icon of modern watchmaking. When it was released in 1998, it was Patek's first basic chronograph in almost 40 years. The production of the brand’s last simple chronograph (non-perpetual) - Reference 1463 - had ceased in the 1960s. With its yellow gold case and black dial, this example of 2000 is a classic and features in our #Geneva Fine Watches sale, open for bidding until 24 June.
