Hey, biggest congrats on the 5960A!
Feb 15, 2019,22:50 PM
That’s simply a lovely watch. Elegant and sporty at the the same time. In the beginning I had my issues with the bracelet like many others here but after a while I could understand the specialty of it. Now I never use a strap on it any more but bracelet only 😄😄.
I wish you lots of good times with this beauty 👍👍.

After a long doubt I decided it was time to pull the trigger on this one. The love for the 5960 reference has always been there. The only factor that it took me a while was about deciding which one to get. Personally I went with the A because the stainles...
Thank you. Very much appreciated.

Are you still a fan? Saw you before wearing it regularly if I remember correctly. Best, H
I am a huge fan!

My work is much easier and when I am off, I mostly wrar Rolex. My standard office watch is 5960. Other Pateks get very little wrist time. Best Kari
Thanks Nicolas,

Its bracelet very much too , great complications in a lovely case with pump pushers,the great deals you may can get on the secondary market is an added bonus. Wear it in good health
The pump pushers

You are right. They definitely add charm to the watch. Now is the time to get it IMHO. Best, H
I’m trying to do as you asked...
By: David_S : February 4th, 2019-01:48
... and find some cons, not just pros. I’m afraid I’m coming up empty. It’s a beautiful watch, congratulations! PS: the one con is that I don’t own it...
Haha! Thanks!

It is. But the good thing is you can change that too. ;-) Best, H
Congrats!

Great watch you got there. Both of them for that matter... Please feel free to join in on the 5960 PuristS roll call if you can find it among older posts... would love to keep counting the 5960s here
Thanks Keks.

I have it. I have the black leather strap, w red stitching. Tried for a while, but always wear now with steel band. So much classier. Enjoy
Since I own this watch my assessment might be biased.

The 5960A clearly has a lot of great attributes that twisted my arm into buying one. Once I had it in my possession for a couple of weeks I found it to be mostly better than I had imagined. I have a few cons that I'll share. 1. The subseconds markings are...
Very well put
By: @WatchesandWristshots : February 7th, 2019-21:09
Definitely agree on these ones: 3. I wish the watch had instantaneous minutes on the chronograph. 5. I wish Patek used orange instead of red for the chronograph hands. and these 2. It's a Patek annual calendar + 12 hour flyback chronograph + power reserve...
Thanks Christian!

Agreed on the bracelet. Love it. Enjoy yours! Best, H
Great utilitarian Watch
By: GreatPilot@me.com : February 10th, 2019-10:39
Great utilitarian watch. I’ve owned both the white and black dial but sold the white dial, I wish I had kept it. The watch is extremely comfortable easy to wear, relatively light on the wrist and great complications. The only complaint I have is the chron...
Thanks Jim,
By: @WatchesandWristshots : February 10th, 2019-15:19
Did you own them at the same time? That thought did already crossed my mind. Also I like the other variations, for sure the black dial. The thing is it is incredibly comfortable and very versatile. But first see how I like it for a longer period of time b...
5960A

i found a new 5960A in a European AD, with white dial. i have a buying adoption until tomorrow....not sure yet though. i was looking for a black faced 5960A, called all over europe and did not get lucky. so what to do, to buy or not to buy? i like the wat...
Hi Peter, As Amanico stated; Buy only if you like it.
By: @WatchesandWristshots : February 15th, 2019-09:33
Personally I did like all the 5960 variations a lot. Aesthetically I love the 5960A with it's bracelet. It's functions, it's case shape and the vintage inspired pushers. Also it is a Flyback chronograph topped off with an Annual Calendar AND all of that i...

Happy to hear you like it too. It is indeed a ref where possibly some of us have to get used to and over time get comfortable with. The bling of it under the AD's lights is not there in real life if you know what I mean. Best, H
