Loving the pattern details at 4 corners, reflected on the movement too! The 5950 evokes in me a gentleman from humble roots (stainless steel as opposed to PM), yet sophisticated (ultra thin chronograph movement).

Maybe with tattoos on his back too, as per the watch!

Steel Patek — post yours

 
 By: Deardorff8x10 : May 26th, 2020-10:41
130 sector, 3483 Beyer, 3466 Guebelin, 5565. Would like to see more! ...  

3417 is missing

 
 By: Deardorff8x10 : May 26th, 2020-10:43
Price has gone up a lot recently and I missed out.

That's a great collection.

 
 By: CL : May 26th, 2020-12:07
Do you have a single image of the 3483 Beyer? Which one do you prefer most? I have an image of a 3417 and a 565 in stainless steel. 3417 is mine while the 565 is now my good friend's. ...  

Semi close up. My favorite.

What a lovely dial...

Love the patina color and the minimalistic BEYER.

Dream watch

 
 By: blau : May 26th, 2020-14:26
Congratulations on owning it!

So YOU're the guy with my favorite watch...

 
 By: mdg : May 26th, 2020-14:44
...have never seen one in person but I'd take it over a repeater or a tourbillon...just love the case, dial, and movement. Congrats : )

I think we agree...

 
 By: mdg : May 26th, 2020-16:49
...and same on the hearing : )

Oooooooooof! [nt]

Amazing piece

 
 By: DOCSF : May 27th, 2020-01:21
We don't see many Patek steel split second chronographs.

The 130 Sector Dial is killing me.

 
 By: amanico : May 26th, 2020-13:33
Here are some 3417 I could take in picture: And a couple of Ref 96. ...  

My pleasure! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : May 26th, 2020-14:27

all so great [nt]

 
 By: Deardorff8x10 : May 26th, 2020-16:44

Here are mine ref 3417 / 3466 and ref 3483

...  

Look at that 3466 :-)

 
 By: CL : May 26th, 2020-14:09
Amazing dial and lugs. I still need to thank you for your write up on 3417. Your story sparks my imagination and desire to seek for one.

So the difference is Sweeping Hand and Sub Second hand?

 
 By: CL : May 27th, 2020-01:03
Both their lugs look similar to 3417. Are both dial similar in person? I love the metallic sunburst look. Really Nice !

The big difference is the movement

 
 By: watch-guy.com : May 27th, 2020-01:37
3466 has an auto 27-460 3483 manual 27sc Dial us a bit nicer on 3483 but very similar J

Then I think I know what I prefer :-)

 
 By: CL : May 27th, 2020-14:16
I love 27SC manual movement. Vintage manual wind Patek has really wonderful winding sound. It makes winding the watch in the morning very enjoyable.

Love that 5565!

 
 By: blau : May 26th, 2020-14:28
In another life I've liquidated most of my collection, bought a 5565, and wear it every day. (In this life I have a watch collection, but no steel Patek!)

Four beauties you have!! Congrats!!

 
 By: kcinemod : May 26th, 2020-17:04
Here are a few of mine ...  

Thank you, Julian! [nt]

 
 By: kcinemod : May 26th, 2020-17:45

Thanks! Great straps

 
 By: Deardorff8x10 : May 26th, 2020-17:55
Inspires me to be more colorful.

Thanks very much!!

 
 By: kcinemod : May 26th, 2020-18:21
The yellow strap is my favorite. Custom Patek strap.

A great idea to equip every watch with a different strap full of character!

 
 By: jkvs : May 27th, 2020-05:46
So you can wear it depending on your daily mood 😊

Yes, thank you!

 
 By: kcinemod : May 27th, 2020-08:18
It’s fun to match with clothing also, but I find myself matching my clothing to the watch strap most of the time! Lol!

here is my daily 565

What a marvel! [nt]

 
 By: amanico : May 27th, 2020-11:33

An Awesome Daily watch :-)

 
 By: CL : May 27th, 2020-12:20
I can imagine what will be the special occasion 565 :P

Daily ...

 
 By: SpinnefrisstKuh : May 28th, 2020-02:57
It started as a special occasion watch, but 6 months ago I stopped that and wear it now daily.

I'm curious for a daily watch,

 
 By: CL : May 29th, 2020-10:49
do you use a 1.5mm thickness or a 1.8mm thickness spring bar. I am contemplating changing my 3417 to a 1.8mm spring bar as I plan to wear it daily.

to be honest,

 
 By: SpinnefrisstKuh : May 30th, 2020-04:43
I don‘t know. And it is too small for my eyes to measure. Sorry, Lars

No worries...

 
 By: CL : May 30th, 2020-07:32
I myself can't tell the difference either

So beautiful. [nt]

 
 By: Deardorff8x10 : May 27th, 2020-14:05

thank you [nt]
