Love this reference mon ami
Fwiw, this reference is still pretty well priced given how much sports Patek, independents and vintage Rolex have picked up over the last 1 year. I love the platinum version the most on leather strap.
I have only one concern, which is the chrono flyback function. It seems to have a wobble when executing the flyback operation. Other than that, I love this complication. It’s wonderful and looks to be a timeless classic.

P.S. Hodinkee pre-owned has one platinum 5960 for sale and looks like an absolute bargain.
A picture of the Patek 5960A.
I took several pictures of the 5960, A or not, with a strap, never on its bracelet. I must say that I much prefer the 5960 on a strap, as the bracelet is a bit too outdated for me. But I could try it and, even if it looks old, it is indisputable, that it ...
This guy finally gets the attention it deserves….a lesson for people who sit and wait.
Although I’m not sure it is a change of collectors’ taste or it’s another “opportunity” by specollectors. Regardless, any 5960 is special and I’m glad I jump on the P-001, a little heavy and the deployant clasp can sometimes dent the wrist skin but all go...
I did indeed let it go.
These photos are from a couple of years ago. I traded it for two watches (both of which I've since traded, too... but no regrets). ...
Love the 5960… even if it is a silver/white dial….
This watch should have been my 50th’s watch… but the Duometre Quantième Lunaire has replaced it because I love much more JLC than PP… At first sight I wasn’t a fan of the « Breitling » bracelet of the 5960… but I’ve changed my opinion while wearing it…. H...
Bracelet!
I have this watch and love it. I'm in the minority, because I've never wished to wear it with a strap. I really like the bracelet! Different strokes for different folks. I believe this was an under appreciated watch in the catalog that became more popular...
much like you...
not a fan of this type of bracelet. and the white dial radiates a sweet temptation for strap changing game cheers

Though I typically prefer the "look" of Pateks on a strap...
This is one piece that excels on a bracelet IMO. Tough choice with no wrong answer.
bracelet is very comfy and carefree indeed..
it looks like it's 5960's turn to be an instagram icon.. ...
I remember when this was first launched.....
..... It was almost universally panned, though it definitely have its supporters here. A controversial piece for sure. I'm glad to be one of the supporters. A modern classic indeed!
