Yes..
Patek should have more of such pieces in the current Calatrava section. 565 with 27SC movement tends to be cleaner as they were towards the end production of 565. Almost 90% of 565 come with sub second and it is extremely rare to have it in sweep second and in stainless steel. Most importantly, this watch has gorgeous enamel printing on the signature and the minutes scale 
. Such tip top, untouched condition is probably also due to its water resistant casing.

A very rare Patek 565
I have a great opportunity to 'share' this super rare 565 with a very close friend. The watch has 27SC movement and there is probably only 12 known in the market, so far. The watch has a very charming appeal, with its interesting history about its out sou...
Long story short...
Me and a very good friend have realised that we have many similar pieces and now we decide that we should own different piece. So, I have gotten this watch and we are eyeing at another. The decision is he will get this from me and I go get the other one. ...
What a great idea!
I was wondering about this type of "Watch Share"model, as it has worked with vacation homes, cars, and other things. Glad there is a post about it and I wonder whether others are doing this, envisioning it, how might it work, etc?
I even have a 'program'
which I curate watches for a friend who love good watches but doesn't want to spend the money up front. So, I suggest some watches that i love and if he loves too, I will buy it for him first while he pays me by installment with no interest. Generally, it...
Great friendship indeed...
This 565 is one piece that me and my friend have talked a plenty about and how it is the inspiration for the modern 5565. we have been talking extensively on another piece too, which I hope I can share soon :P
Thanks Christian...
I am well. Staying indoor and try to be as productive as I possibly can. I'm kinda into Patek vintage now... finding something that can spend quiet time with me
Very interesting and clean 565
I wish Patek would keep pieces like this in the collection. Thanks for sharing and enjoy! -- Richard.

Oh my that dial
Love the shared approach to your collecting Excellent idea but can be fraught with danger as I tend to fall in love with my pieces and do not give them up easily J
You must share...
your vintage collection is awe inspiring. I think I have read almost everything you have written and it is very addictive. I can understand why you are so in love with all your pieces . Remember the 5105P, I bought it after you had it. I am your loyal fol...
Totally agree...
These foundational pieces belong in the collection for always. If Patek wishes to control the number of pieces fine, offer a smaller number of pieces annually but don't remove them from the collection.
Totally agree!
Totally agree! One of the most stunning vintage Pateks and would still be 80+ years later!
Beautiful Doxa...
I love the '565' case. Am I correct to say that it was made by the same manufacturer? Also, is your bracelet from Gay Freres? If yes, can you photograph the stamping to show me? I am curious about the hallmark stamping of old Gay Freres bracelet. Thanks!
Thank you!
The case was also made by Taubert et Fils, Manufacture de boîtes Borgel. This Bracelet is the budget version of the Gay Freres bracelet but perfect match. This was my inspiration... ...
I know this watch...
I love the long signature . Your bracelet is very similar to this. I have one that's the same too. What do you mean by budget version? Who makes them? Thanks.
that's even more brilliant :-)
Does it have any hallmark stamping on the bracelet? Also, are they the extended type? These are all steel bracelet, it doesn't matter what price they are as long they are working well.
