Mission Accomplished.
Took me 7 years to get all 3 of them. Heard alot of
harsh comments (especially from another forum) saying they are ugly,
not patek, 70s.....etc. Call me the minority but I like them the first
time I saw 3710....could not get the 3712 but 5712 is good enough and eventaully the 5980! My next target maybe the hardest to get......original 3700.

it was your mission, not anybody else. So who cares about the others? To be honest, I would never drive most of the others cars, wear their kind of clothes, ... Enjoy them, that is THE most important of all. Ref. 3700 is still open, but should be not that...
Agree.

The problem is that most of the Patek I like seems to be those the majority hates. I like the Nautilus, the Aquanaut, the Gondolo Calendario and the 6000...but every time I read about these models (from other forums), I only hear bashing comments and make...

Hi, The Gondolo is definitely too large for me but I love all other references you mentioned! 5712/1A, 6000G, 5167R, ..... miam! Cheers Dje
What about 5070?
By: Ba Ba : June 25th, 2009-09:56
Hi, I think the 5070s are as big as the 5135 but seems like everyone sing praise about them. On the other hand, almost every comment about the 5135 are about it's huge size, ridiculous lugs... My point is they both are technically big watches but everyone...
5070 is gorgeous
