Catalogue Essay
The reference 5970, the successor of the celebrated reference 3970, was introduced at the Basel Fair in 2005. The reference ceased production in 2011 with the introduction of the reference 5270. It is the last perpetual calendar chronograph wristwatch produced by the company fitted with a Lemania movement, which is still highly sought after by collectors. The watch is coupled with a pink gold case measuring 40 mm. diameter, which gives it tremendous presence on the wrist. The chronograph registers, moon phases and tachymeter scale are perfectly balanced on the dial. Offered in excellent overall condition and complete with original certificate and fitted presentation box, this present watch is true classic that is highly collectible.
