Here comes a lazy response to a major post:

By: blau : November 9th, 2024-11:45

the first one is the best!

Not lazy Just good taste Agree with you First is best

By: watch-guy.com : November 9th, 2024-11:48

The 2597 rules them all, I would agree.

By: quattro : November 10th, 2024-08:30

But the pt 5134 appeals to me too (and isn't completely out of reach)...

Er..

By: Mendezj49 : November 9th, 2024-16:04

The first one is the only one I’d own. 😉

But I also like the 5134P.

2597.

By: bruckner4 : November 9th, 2024-13:18

Pretty please?

Yes, 2597 is wonderful,

By: quattro : November 10th, 2024-08:32

but completely out of reach. I personally also like the 5134P.

2597 and the Rectangulus with the malachite dial for me.

By: amanico : November 9th, 2024-15:38

2597 is getting a lot of love, deservedly.

By: quattro : November 10th, 2024-08:33

But the 5134P also appeals to me.

Difficult choice here.. 2597 aesthetics is great but it lacks a 24hr indicator for the local time which isn’t practical for a travel watch. And I don’t like the dial having 2 potholes for day nite indicators.. so that rules out most of the references pres...

What bout the 5134?

By: quattro : December 29th, 2024-17:56

It seems to solve most of the issues you are raising: not too large, no potholes, 24h indicator. I personally like it, in particular in the versions without numerals.

Somehow I feel something is off

By: yming : December 30th, 2024-14:30

numerals look outsized.. and with indices, it’s better but maybe the bezels too thick or perhaps the pushers to the left and the crown guard to the right makes the round watch look oval.. can’t put my finger on it

I understand what you mean.

By: quattro : December 30th, 2024-17:04

This case may be a bit odd, but I personally like it and find it quite close to the one of the world timer ref. 5110.

Emmanuel, another great photographic essay on a very extensive and technically interesting group of watches, with a long history.

By: patekova : December 29th, 2024-12:52

For me, in many ways the most appealing is the supremely practical and beautiful (in person), 5326G annual calendar travel time watch. Also, very practical and highly complex is the 5990 1/A travel time with fly back chronograph. Best, Patekova

2597 all day long

The king indeed.

Not a bad watch, either.

Great post

Thank you for the kind words, Hans.
