Patek Philippe

We all know the special emotion tied with vintage Patek. Some of the pieces are agonisingly beautiful. But what of the modern era? Specifically the new millennial’s. Can modern Patek’s live with the history of their illustrious forebears? Well, I think so...  

My watch box and one on order. I fully agree with your selection. Thanks Imran. Best, Kari

I would swap 5100 with 5650.

5100 needs quite a wide wrist. I would perhaps consider swapping the anniversary World Time to 5650. Anyhow, Imran's point was clear: during this millennium Patek has introduced some great references. Like in the past, there are always references one want... 

.....i think the 5100 is rightfully in that Top 5. Its an incredible reference. I REALLY wanted it....but when I tried it on, just impossible for my wrist. Odd, but i also agree with him on 5070p v 5970p.

Naturally, 5070P is a keeper even I do not wear that watch so much. Sometimes I think it's a little bit big. But I am old fashioned. Best, Kari

My choice would be; 5131 , 5575, 5370, 5320 and 5970P But if i could only have one watch and it would be PP my absolute favorite of all watches is this one ☝️ It even fits my wife’s tiny wrist 😋 ...  

You have named 5 superb choices, but what makes this a golden age for me is that there are many other references that are similarly magnificent. Thanks for your pictorially stimulating and thought provoking post! Best, patekova

1. 5595 2. 5575 3.5235 4.5070 5. 5105/.5500?? Have to include 5370!!!but not in my collection sadly In no particular order J

Although from your list, I only agree with the 5575G but that is a matter of taste and personal preference. Apart from the 5575G, I would add the 5270R, the 5959, the 3939 and the 5078. Thank you for the post!

I need to dig a bit deeper before I can revert with one or two alternative watches, or none ! The 5070s are really growing on me with the lemania movements ! IMO, the 5131 series is a no brainer in the top 3 ! Cheers, Gordon BRW, you are a strong contende...
