Very fine and important, water-resistant, 18K yellow gold wristwatch with round button chronograph, register, perpetual calendar, moon phases, 24-hour indication and an 18K yellow gold Patek Philippe buckle. Accompanied by fitted box, certificate of origin and booklets. Three-body, solid, polished, concave bezel, fluted lugs, screwdown case back, sapphire crystal. Satiné silver with applied yellow gold baton indexes, subsidiary dials for the seconds and the 30- minute register, the days of the month, the 24 hours and the leap year, aperture for the days of the week, the months, and the moon phases. Yellow gold feuille hands. Cal. CH 27-70 Q, stamped with the Seal of Geneva Quality Mark, rhodium-plated, fausses cotes decoration, 24 jewels, straight line lever escapement, free-sprung Gyromax balance adjusted to heat, cold, isochronism and 8 positions, shock-absorber, self-compensating Breguet balance spring.

Notes The Ref. 3970 is now truly considered a classic by collectors, following in the footsteps of its predecessors Ref. 1518, Ref. 2499, and Ref. 2499/100. They have become virtually unattainable to all but the wealthiest and most patient individuals. Hopefully, this note will shed some light on the different variations of the Ref. 3970 and help to better define its value, w
