thickness isn't horrible for me

I do agree with the sentiment to do one thing and do it well. Not that the 5960 does anything poorly, and actually combines a bunch of things well, just thought that movement finishing on the others is def superior. In fact, the 5960 technically, is prob

This is an interesting one. I have owned the 5960G, currently own the 5172G-01 and have tried on the 5170G and the Lange 1815 Boutique Chrono extensively. Here are my thoughts:

Are auction prices 'real'?

The stuff dreams are made of

To me, the 5960, in all iterations and metals, but especially in platinum, is the definition of Patek Philippe in the first quarter of the 21st century. This is what horological history is made of. Design, complications, practicality, complexity. All of t

Any 5960p blue love?

Please seem to like the grey dial but I’m partial to the blue. The correct blue hue is quite hard to capture

Patek Philippe 5960/A. Another nice reference from Patek.

5960 Hump day

For some reason I think it looks better with the Chronograph running which is luckily not an issue with this watch
