I heard some rumors regarding 5960a w/ white dial.
Seen couple weeks ago back in December last yr, says that patek is discontinuing 5960 white dial. Has anyone heard something similar? Sourced from a collector on instagram. Still I can see it on pp website also I just paid a visit to the ad before Christm...
I while ago they said "done".
I presume they are using the last dials and then it's goodbyes. Best, Kari
Nowadays, discontinuing doesn’t mean much...
if being collectible or desirable is what you are looking for, assuming. It may mean something better is replacing it, like the black dial or the blue WG model. The 5170G white dial was also discontinued, as a similar example. This white dial 5960/1A has ...
I have no inside information
But I'll be surprised if the white dial appears in the 2018 catalogue. Thomas
I like this model white 5960/1A very much!
I think it's the right step to go for Patek. Apart from Nautilus and Aquanaut, a steel watch from PP is very rare. As this 5960/1A either white or black is not very popular, PP may discontinue in order to increase the collector's value. PP did the same ga...
It is a nice watch and I like it a lot but for some reason every AD that I have been to has at least one
Some of the brand new 5960/1A are going for a big discount here in the UK. Good pre-owned examples are going for 25% less. I think it might be the bracelet that has divided the opinions. I guess we'll find out what happens to these pieces in a few years.
pre-owned is 25% less than the list price or than the already discounted new one? what's the current price of the discounted new one?
pre-owned is 25% less than the list price or than the already discounted new one? what's the current price of the discounted new one in UK? and how much you can get pre-owned inUK?

I wholeheartedly agree with your views on the 5960A! Just be careful not to discuss details on pricing here - PM is better!! Thomas
I'm not a PP buyer for the most part but this is actually a watch I do like (and the 5205 with similar dial layout for calendar).
Both models may possibly have a claim to the worst residual value of any complicated modern PP. [Mods, is this general statement ok on the topic of price?] The white 5960 in particular seems to be in every AD case and there are bundles of them for sale (B...
Travelled to Lucerne about 2 yrs ago
I went to Bucherer and saw tourists buying Rolex like buying in a supermarket. Its like buying groceries with a check out line. That's how fast they sell. I went to a PP AD across or near there, to my surprise nearly all or all watches have been sold. Onl...
