Glad you have found relief.
There is nothing wrong with either of these watches, or both of them, not being the watch for you. You let go of the 15202 the first time around, and, if I understand correctly, much prefer the Patek. Nothing wrong with that. But will the 16202 manage to stay? I hope so, it sure looks great in your photos.
It's a good problem to have. I hope they can equally satisfy you!
Let's compare the two popular steel masterpieces (PP5711A & AP16202ST) side by side.
I’m, of course, a Patek Philippe fan (especially of the Nautilus). This year's new 5610 particularly caught my eye. However, my love for Patek Philippe wasn't limited to just Patek Philippe from the beginning of my watch collecting. I started with Panerai...

I came so close to picking up a 16 202 about three weeks ago. Needless to say there was a premium on it. It was from 2025. It appeared to be an excellent condition. It has five years on the warranty.
I prefer the 15510. I like the secondhand, and the movement itself is more robust. But there’s something to say about the 39 mm 16202.
Dear anaroku, as I commented in your previous post, huge congratulations!
Both are iconic watches with a wonderful design. And the 16202 seems to be a great execution of the Jumbo. Wear and enjoy this pair in good health. Best, Emmanuel
Yes, a very human post and you are amongst friends who appreciate and understand
I always thank the people who share deeply as you have shared. Yes, these watches are mechanic marvels, yes they cost a crazy amount of money, yes they make some people question our priorities, etc. What you have shared is at the heart of why we are emoti...
Yes very embarrassing feeling and i share it with you :))
