The 5960 is more of a modern PP design, very classy, very practical in daily and most important that is vey reliable. Putting on the 5070 gives a more sporty and vintage feel, although it does not have the practical complications like 5960 but certainly have that "Mojo" due to aesthetic design and rarity. Very happy to own both them.

As with you, I have wavered over the 5960 and 5980. I am naturally attracted to neither relative to almost all other "classic" PP, which makes my desire to have one or both of them even more peculiar. At it's most basic level, I am attracted to each of th...

5960 P Ruthenium dial over the 5980 Blue dial. Not that I am a big fan of the annual calendar, and I do prefer the monodial of the Nautilus, but I hate its bracelet. I feel more comfortable with the 5960P. " As watches and not as Patek watches "... I do t...
Makes total sense to me

I couldn't believe how drawn I was to the 5980 given I am really cold on the Nautilus generally. I went to the local AD to see it after it grew on me, and I absolutely fell for it. Then weeks later I went back to buy it. I tried it on and the bracelet was...
slate grey!

I thought I would like to blue dial 5960P because I love the blue inner circle on the 5130P. The slate grey/rose gold combination is something I never thought would work but when I saw it in real life, I was blown away. I think the slate grey dial color i...
All wonderful

fadaman, All four of the models you're considering are wonderful, and you won't go wrong with any of them. It took time for me to warm to them, but I now own all four. This may give me some perspective on their relative merits. Although I initially consid...
Thanks Park

Good perspective. I think I will focus on the 5960 first, the versatility is endearing. Right now, I alternate between vintage rolex (subs, datonas, gmts) as my passion pieces, my RM 004 or PAM4 when I feel a bit macho, and -------- as a dressier/crossove...
Terrific

I saw the rose gold 5960 earlier this year, and thought that the combination was fantastic. The dial works so well with the case colour. Really terrific. Now, the 5070j, that's another story. That is my absolute favourite combination for the 5070. I will ...
