Dear Joe you have perfect...
blue dial round watch from Patek
hence I would go after perfect rectangular blue dialed watch from Patek
in vein of vertical and horizontal rule by Bill 
This years novelty 5124G makes my heart beat faster every time I see it
I think it goes equally perfectly well with jeans and suit
Yours

Opinions required....
I will start off by stating that I already have a good idea of my intended direction, but I am curious to hear how others view it. Of course, personal taste will vary considerably from one person to another, and nobody can really get inside my head to det...
What to add.
May a suggest a nautilus , an ellipse in yellow gold. The nautilus , the 38mm model. The one previous to the new model 5711a. As you have a chrono & world time , perhaps you need playboy watches of patek both a nautilus and ellipse. Cheers! Geross
Ellipse...yes, I think that is a real possibility....
.......I think they are iconic and have a really nice look on the wrist. Nauty is not for me. I know I am in a very small minority, but the watch doesn't appeal to me. Yes, Geross, I have mentioned the possibility of a vintage Ellipse before. I think that...
Vintage ellipse with cal 215 ps would be nice.
Get the one with eccentric seconds on the right side. White gold railroad black dial. I forgot the ref but saw it in bangkok , really nice. My opinion my suggestion. Cheers!
If you get a picture of it, please post....
.....so many Ellipse styles to go for. I would need to go vintage
"Playboy watches"
Indeed, and a 928 to go along with it. Preferably with Pasha seats.
That's a tough one
I like your vertical/horizontal thing Joe I think I prefer the vertical collecting even if, in the end, it is the sensation I have in owning a watch that preveils, no matter the fact I may have a close looking watch already. I guess you would like to rema...
Thanks Mark
The vertical vrs horizontal was a Bill term. I like it too. To be a vertical guy, I think you need to have a very focussed passion. I have that in some specific areas, but in Rolex rather than Patek. The 3940 is a watch I love. I saw MikeH version in Pari...
This is a great project.
...and the 3940 I saw... was the same one :p I like the 5970 a lot but deciding to have one or several from a lower budget is really a tough decision. From the watches you gathered you certainly made a great one. The Gondolo is indeed a watch not easy to ...
Now I must agree!
I understand nothing about vertical vs. horizontal. But what I know for sure is that 3940 together with 5550P are the finest slim perpetuals Patek has ever made! You can forget 5140 as 3940 has so much cleaner dial. What is amazing with 3940 is that even ...
Kari....
.....i want to pay you a compliment. You are a big guy, yet you are totally happy to wear watches that are quite small relative to the sizes that are out there. I think there are so many guys who feel in some way "threatened" by wearing a small watch...as...
What a heck are you speaking about!
Me, BIG GUY? Look at the picture: my wife, youngest daughter, me and mother-in-law above us. Am I big? With watches I have strict size limits: 35-40 mm. Naturally there are some exceptions: I you would like to give me your 5070P, I would wear it with plea...
I don't remember you with so much hair, either!
Yep...i also have a rule on 35-40mm But I make one or two exceptions. Thank you for your most generous offer to wear my 5070P. I will let you know when I decide to take you up on that kind offer! Best Joe
Much hair?
The hairy one is Nina, my mother-in-law. Please pay attention to the tits to which the gravity has influenced several decades. Best, Kari
Allow me to be generous...
Allow me to be generous in offering you some wrist real estate for your 5070P as well. It's all about finding watches that you love. If nothing else is available that you love, don't buy anything. Just sit and wait, maybe there will be a year or two betwe...
I forgot another watch...
or another caliber to be more precise. Having a 27-460 (with M maybe) would be a great addition too if you don't have one yet :)
Why not a Patek form watch
Ellipse was already given, but depending if you want a complication or not: 5100 5940G 5098P Btw, I would go for a 5100G or P (if I would have the budget) Happy hunting, Dirk
Hi joe. Why not venture further down the vintage path
the 2526 or 570 are stunning calatravas but different to your magnificent pieces you already own- or maybe ref 2552 I would agree with 3940p as well I am sure whatever you choose will be top class Ps I tried on a vintage ellipse Be aware it is a small pie...
Hey Julian....
.....Ellipse is indeed small....but i think it works for me. More Calatravas....yes, I have definitely considered that too. When I see a WG or Steel 570, it is very tempting for sure. The way I see it, though, is that I have 4 Calatravas of various metals...
You can't go past a 2552 in wg
what about 3970p (I love spending other people's money) What about a simplicity? See you Thursday J
Yes
This is class. Understatement. Beautiful. Timeless. This is Patek at its best. I simply love this look. Best Edmond
Good advice about vintage Ellipse
Indeed as a vintage model a tad too small. The current Ellipse is among the few modern "magnifications" in the new collection that has worked well. Best Moritz
5100 is unwearable for me......
.....just impossible to wear. If i went there, i'd go P...... but 5100 is just no-go. 1579 is much more interesting......worth considering yes.
i actually like these vintage chorines in yellow gold....
....i think the juxtaposition of the yellow gold and the chrono complication works really well for me. I have to say, 3940P, Ellipse and 1579 would all be very nice additions....complimentary. This exercise is interesting as everyone has a view. Obviously...
Two opinions
Good luck in your hunt for your next piece. I can only offer two pieces of advice, in order of importance. 1. Don't over think it, wait till you see or try on a watch and know its what you want. Those are always the easiest decisions. 2. If you had to pus...
my suggestion would be
if not the 3940 then the 5050 with stick dial in any metal….or the 5125 P or R are also gorgeous… just my 5c Lot of the time one never knows until the moment is there…. on the wrist. Good luck and look forward to reading what you end up going for!
Uhm, that one is not for me......
.....am not a fan of the way that the date has been split-up like that
Go for a classic modern playboy Patek: 5396 G
Hello there, knowing your preference for white metal and your desire for a classic looking Patek I would suggest the 5396 G. It is a quintessentiel Patek by being an annual calendar, it is a classic looking 38 mm, sporty-elegant which makes it a playboy P...
Count.....
.....you are right. I think coloured or white gold in that watch is superb. I do like the fact that the case has that 70s feel to it.... does that make sense? Yes, I think you are on the right lines here.

The choice is clear...
...ly not easy! :) My initial reaction was immediately a Nautilus 3700. I do not think there is any other PP that would better meet your horizontal collecting preferences. But this seems almost too obvious the more I think about it... I also have not noti...
More clarity on Nautilus
The issue is, if i wanted a sports watch, then nothing in my mind beats Rolex. So, I see pate as offering something quite separate.
