. . . because it's too close to call. But, no matter, I prefer the white gold, blue dial, tan strap, reference 5960G to both steel variants. I'm wondering about the price of the 5960G. Anyone know?
Thank you.

Based on the photos I'd say white.
The red seconds hand seems too much on the black dial.
I'm going to dodge your question . . .

He he... I saw the pictures of the white gold. Really cool! No idea on the retail for the 5960G. [nt]

I would go with the black dial. It has a very nice contrast with the quite 'busy' bracelet IMHO.
Would love to see the WG version.
Best,

At first I found the white dialed version quite simple in design, like a drawing from a five year old but ...
... it has certainly grown on me and the strap alteration makes it a highly useable, cool everyday Patek, especially with the vertical clutch.
The black one has to be seen but is less attractive, possibly.
Both are beautiful, but the white is completed for summer here ;)
The black would be very well with a black leather red topstitching (the white dial also it is true) and maybe more classy. The white is more additional of a duomètre black dial chrono

I'm not going to be popular with this but here goes.
Neither.
When Patek released the original 5960 I remember thinking they had stumbled across something really very special. For me the complications including the fly back function worked perfectly on a watch which I could wear with jeans or more formal wear. It just worked it looked great it felt great on the wrist and it did exactly what I wanted it to. Should this fantastic creation of meant to be silver and shinny then perfect the 5980 was created with the same exceptional movement.
As we keep saying we are all different but for me as with every great creation by Patek the 5960 should of been kept to
5960p
5960r
5960j
5960g
Simples. All on leather.
The original was Patek at their best. Innovative,exciting,good looking. And for the record my 5960p is one of my favourites in my collection and to this day still fills me with these feelings.

True that the bracelet doesn't help to appreciate the Steel. But if you remove it and replace it with the right strap, then... ;) [nt]

Never been too keen on the Steel 5960 with Bracelet
but I can see the white has its charm. For me the best 5960 is still the original P with slate grey dial and white subdial.
The new black is so-so.

The slate grey made me dream. But you have to see the steel WITHOUT this bracelet. [nt]
