Patek Philippe 3970P.
I am turning around these perpetual calendar chronos, at least on pictures as seeing them in person is quite rare.
Now, let's see the 3970P:
Even if my heart is taken by the 5970P, I can't deny this one has a lot of charm AND elegance.
Best,
Nicolas

Definitely charming mon ami
But when you put both references side by side….which one will you take home with you? ;-) and no you can’t take both! Best Gatsby
To used the old cliche, "as good as it gets"
Whilst I would say the 5970 to be, "as good as it will ever get"[probably]. 😆
Once I tried on a 3970.
I loved everything about it except for how thick it was. But if I could go back I would pick it up for sure. It’s up about 100k since I tried it on…your photo is great as always.
I'd be thrilled to own such a beauty.
Between this, the 5970s and 5270s... we are blessed to have these many options.
The 3970 is great until
I put one on my wrist. For me the proportions are all wrong and I just can’t get over it. Believe me I’ve tried. The nickname Burger for me fits. It just doesn’t sit properly for my eyes. I seriously appreciate it though. M.
Hi Nicolas, the 3970 “mini
hamburger” 🍔 is so delicious 😋 and packs a GIANT punch 🥊! You NEED one !😉
