This seems to be the rarest dial version of this ref , I have only found one other - and I personally think its the best - like yours it has a large seconds register which I feel adds to the appeal...  

one of the rarest dial i have ever seen. i saw one with similar dial that was for sale by Antiquorum about 10 years ago. wondering how you got this watch?

I bought this watch from a small local auction house in Sydney about 4 years ago. I had not owned or worn a watch for 25 years, but I was mesmerized by the dial, and just had to have it. I got it for a steel (ha ha), but it started a disease thats cost me... 

I have been scouring the city and came up with nada, zip ,babkes!! Great find and a magnificent dial. Julian

i used to live in Sydney (from 1995-2001) but i did not find any pateks (i mean vintage pateks) there. if you find any other vintage pateks please let me know! i will fly there to buy them (ha)!! anyway thanks for the pic! as for the hands, the other one ...

When i saw the photo of the watches, it seriously blew me away! 9.99/10. No doubt. Simple, clean, elegant lines. Nothing compares with this watch from the modern day patek collection. Totally different from antimagnetic watches prduced today, i.e, MILGAUS...
