I am very sad that Patek has increased the size of almost all it’s watches in the last years. There is almost nothing I would buy in the current lineup. If this or the 6196p were in 37 mm (the 6196 almost in 36.5 since it wears large) I would buy it in a
Managed to try this at my AD, am surprised they already have it I find the hands and hr indices too intensely black, same as the 6196P salmon.. not very convinced
1. 6105G-001: It dares to present a design they never did before. The Richard Mille for intellectuals, if you will... 2. 5810/1G-001: The 41mm size and the 240 microrotor movement makes this very compelling to me and I would love to own one (if that happe
Hi all! I was curious if you had any patek calatrava recommendations in platinum from 34-36mm? I find that the modern 5196p and 6196p references are a tad too large for dress watches. I have a royal oak in 37mm and I think for a dress watch the 34-36mm si

My 6196P has arrived, and after living with it for a few days, I’ve come to realize that the 1.33mm increase in thickness over its predecessor, the 5196, is quite a significant design change. I had noticed this when reading the press release back in April
Yes, the better suited movement and see thru back of 6196 are very appealing, but still, what you see on your wrist is the front side. 6196 is quite elegant but for me not so exciting. I think almost any strap will look on 5196! PS I think you should chan
Neither like the 6119 front nor its back. Not into hobnail bezels and I find the current manual Patek movement unattractive to put it mildly. Apart from the movement size I much prefer its smaller predecessors. If you were comparing with the 6196 at least
