Watch Shopping Yesterday...

...In San Francisco. We hit Patek and Lange, but the Rolex reservation was wonky so we will go back soon. A couple of observations. Our 'Ambassador' at Patek was Jay. Very nice guy who knows his stuff and loves watches. He was wearing a vintage mono-push

Annual Calendar Reguator 5235G: an undervalued gem?

Let me be frank: I’m not a huge fan of Patek Philippe in general. (Ducks a barrage of rotten fruit.) Before you start flaming, let me tell you that I enjoy the level of finishing Patek applies to its higher end products and appreciate the quality of the b

just an observation

from your side elevations diagrams the 5196 and the 6196 have the protruding 'finger nail' between the 6 lugs for opening the case back-are they hinged?-where 6119 does not. 6119 having a standard snap back hence can be thinner along with the flat glass b

Autumn Leaves and an Evergreen

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

6119R on a new strap

Tried out a new strap from Molequin. I think it worked......What do you think? In either case, I love the dauphine hands, how the minute hand perfectly aligns all the way to the edge of case, and overall simple elegance of this watch. J.

6119g

I wear the 6119G myself, and you’ll be surprised how much its look changes with different strap colors. What’s surprising is that with this gray dial, almost anything you put on it works.

Love my LF and sold my 6119G, so my answer is clear

But at the end there is - as always- no right or wrong. It's a matter of personal preferences. For me the 6119 was too thin for it's diameter. Somehow the proportions are not to my taste. Not a fan of thin watches at all and as I'm only wearing casual clo

You posted in the correct forum given that both pieces have Patek DNA especially given that Laurent Ferrier

worked at Patek ! I love the Clous de Paris on the bezel of your 6119G. The LF shape is unique and is worthwhile for your consideration. For me 6119 sings to me more because of its conventional shape and hands, along with service considerations as mention

LF

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
