Congratulations!
I know we have a lot of Salmon dial fans here, this is a great watch and layout you acquired.
We would love to learn about why you chose it and many pictures too.

Let me clarify the Patek Philippe "unique dial pieces"
there were a few models 5070g and p 5970g and j 3940g as well as a few others they are all in less than 10 pieces, they were old/case mvt with unique dials so the 3940g for example has a gorgeous rose /salmon dial (like the 5070g and 5970g) the 5970j has ...
It's internet jargon for
something very funny Rolling On The Floor Laughing abbreviated in a way that only first letters are use LOL (Laughing Out Loud) Sincerely D
any photos available????
It should be a pleasure to discover them, for those who are not in London. Best, Patrickh
yeah yeah...
... fill in applications, that's a good one :) i saw the 5970G with sunburst grey dial. Looks great, but feels like prototype when you say 5 pcs. 5070P felt like the original model, but you saw it, so you must know better.
But what'bout the others?
I was under the impression that beyond the lemania based pieces, they are also releasing a VERY few: 3940G-029 3940R-027 3940EP-046 5050J-019 5059G-018 5059J-017 5059P-018 5059R-017 Are these also made w/ 'Unique' dials? Funny I was JUST at a dinner last ...
3940g salmon
I'm sorry that the picture is not great (does not do justice to the colour) but here is a photo of my 3940g, with salmon dial, which I very happily collected today. ...
Congrats
looks great in the salmon dial! Would of been cool if they used a first series dial in salmon.

Congratulations. 3940 is a great PC.
Would love to see some photos in various lighting situations, outdoors, natural, etc. Aloha, Bob
Thank you all...
...for your kind words (and welcome). I will try to take some better pics and share. Why did I choose it? I saw it in the austere surroundings of the Napoleon Room of the 175 Exhibtion and began the quest the very next morning. I found the pink to be both...
Yes the 3940 is a special reference
I saw the Pt version lately, it is so elegant and refined. Thanks a lot for sharing your thoughts about this. Have a good week-end too. Cheers, Mark
looks great Chimaera !
I own a 3940g for years and never thought of the watch as a collector piece, it's just simply a watch that hugs my wrist so comfortably in a metal that is so low profile that it sits on it out of the limelight and serves it purpose, love it for what it do...
