Patek Philippe

Hi,

   Longtime timepiece enthusiasts and as the new guy here.... Seems one should provide a 'wrist shot', so here is one of the Pateks (my new fave). The hallmarks on the side of the case are deep, so odds are she has never been polished. Was the AD's personal timepiece. Yes, i know 2:10 is better for hands, yet this is the actual time the photo was taken so... Hope this is ok.

to post such beauties in first post
it's very much appreciated

I like seeing the hands at 12.00 h, as it lets us see the dial from an unobstructed perspective.

Enjoy!

Thanks for sharing photos of your new toy.  The 3970 along with the 5970 are my favorite watches.  They exude a classic style rarely found in other models.  And rose gold is my preference too.  Love you piece.  Enjoy, and welcome aboard.

I always waved between the 3970 and the 5970...

Welcome here, by the way.

Best,

Nicolas.

I would choose the 3970 over the 5970 as it is smaller, with round pushers and simply more elegant.

A dream watch!

The 3970 has something magic IMHO. I find its dial very balanced...

Perfect at 12:00 position.

I have been long time eyeing on this model (in PT case), but my bank account keep drying up once replenished a bit.  I know, I should STOP buying  new ones for a while, but just can't resist.....  Need to find a job that pays more   In other words, almost hopeless! 

Thanks for sharing the photo in your first post and I would love to see more!  Come back and post often, please!

Welcome aboard!

What an entrance, thank you & keep them coming.

Welcome to the forum....................you can come again LOL

A most humble thanks, you guy are truly a great group! Ok, one more....

Here is a pic on the 3820 that is here, and please note the dial is actually medium creme colored and the rose gold case and hands are augmented by rose gold Arabics that are less stylized than the normally dialed 3820 and gold 'droplets' for the minute indices (so yes, very rare dial). It reminds me of my personal dream watch, which is the 3939H. Both are akin to the Harrods 3923R special that was here (only 36 of those were produced), which was also rose gold with gold droplets for minute indication yet had a silvered dial.

 

Thanks for posting your picture, and welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the photo and welcome!
