advice needed - 5960 vs 5172G-010 or 5170G-001

Good evening all, I need some help with a relatively unimportant problem. I recently acquired a JLC duometre chronograph in the original yellow gold and am absolutely loving the finishing on it. That, and just maturing as a collector, has caused me to thi

Great choice, but I still can’t decide between salmon or navy.

To my eye, this reference stands as a most accomplished expression of the chronograph tradition, gracefully drawing upon the lineage of such emblematic models as the Patek Philippe Ref. 130, whose clarity of design established the canon; the Patek Philipp

Looks like we have a tie...

I love my 5170P.

My favourite non-Nautilus and my favourite chronograph. Ok top of that you have best version of the 5170!

You’d be amazed how good it would also look on a rubber strap. My 5296 on rubber strap:

Grandfather chic 5170R

Casual Friday with a Patek that my grandfather would've easily pulled off in the 1960s. In my office environment, this sweater and chinos qualifies as a formal look! LOL A great weekend to all! Best of everything, Robert

I think that I've found my grail watch... do you have one?

And by that I mean the watch that would be my ultimate target, which I will possibly never reach... Here it is: it was love at first sight (in real). Pictures are nice, but the real thing is something else 🤤🤤🤤 Cheers!

Correct lift angle for Patek 5170 and 5270

Dear fellow Patek lovers, With reference to the topic matter, please could anyone let me know what is the correct lift angle for the 5170 & 5270 (as they share the same base movement) ? I’m doing some Timegrapher measurements and it would be great to have

GLau, I'm wearing her today.

The 5170R is a girl I rescued from a mud puddle. The dirty, chaotic 47th Street underworld. She was born a Princess, fell down and I took her into my heart. We will stay together for the rest of my life, then the rest of my wife's life, the onto our lovel

I don’t think so.

However, who knows. I have ADD with watches. I also rarely sell them, so my collection has grown out of control. I’m about to start selling off pieces I never thought I’d sell because my tastes have changed. With that said, the 5711 is timeless. My plan i

Given that I have a recently discontinued AD I am currently focused on discontinued references :-)

More seriously, I have always had a soft spot for the celestial complication and the 6105G is very cool but it is also out of reach. The 5610/1P is lovely but in a small collection it would only make sense instead of my blue 5711/1A which has been getting
