thanks!
I’ve been thinking about the Dato — I really think it needs a good robust steel bracelet to wear comfortably. Just a hunch. So I think a super jubilee bracelet might work visually even if it’s strange to mix brands, should fit 20mm lugs. 🤔🤯 Imran, are you reading this? Someone with the means & courage has to try it. 😬
Always bet on black 😎
So a month ago, I posed an informal poll between the ALS Pt Datograph 1st gen vs. the PP 5960/1A-010. The Dato won hands down with PuristS 24-8 by my last tally. Well PuristS, I took your advice to heart. 🙌🙏🙏 ....and I got the Patek...🤣🤣🤣 (Seriously thoug...
Hehe...thanks Nico!
I know you have a spot in your "watch box" for the 5960A. So I wait to see a brother on your wrist too.
of course it is mandatory now
I am expecting a good surprise that you will join in the roll call 😇
Massive congratulations, Joe.
She looks really great on your wrist. Well done. Enjoy! Best, Volker
fantastic. Congratulations :-)
It Looks really good. There are not that many live pics of the black, so we really need you to post A LOT!
This is a great day, Joe!
One of your most sought-after watches is now in the box. Or on the wrist, to be precise. Congratulations!
thanks Padj!
well, I have thought a lot about this model since a certain Tiffany one last year...😉😃
Holy cow, that’s some Lady Luck you got there 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Huge congratulations Joe, you just hit jackpot 😬 Rgds Raymond
🙏👍 thanks Raymond!
everyone loves lady luck! The AD guy was telling me that they might or might not have other special models in the safe, so I wonder if I should have tested my luck even more...😉
Welcome to the 5960 club!
... no secret I am a long time fan of this reference in many of its iterations. Hope you will find much joy with this one!
thanks K!
I have my eyes on the 5960A white too. It is very tempting, this 12-hr chrono.
Ha!
You know I am a fan of this ref in many iterations.... Such a cool piece. To own both steels? Why not. So different in style... I got two 5960 but feels like two different refs
thanks! well I am happy to have my name on the Patek certificate for sure
but what happens in the future is an unknown. I will wear it as long as I can.
Congratulations
Beautiful watch very comfortable bracelet enjoy and welcome to the club has not left my side this year 👍🏼
I agree with everything you said
I have one arriving tomorrow. Can't wait to have it on the wrist
Here's mine
Saying hello from Malaysia Sepang circuit, the chronograph for timing race cars on the weekend, extremely comfortable with the bracelet.. ...
Now that's cool.
Double points for trackside photos with a chronograph! Nicely shot. Best, Tim
You made the right decision.
The 5960 is a watch you can wear everyday. The Datograph is a pretty thing you'd put on once a month.
thanks!

Congratulations on the new beauty and wear it in great health.
Though a proud owner of a first gen Dato, I certainly can’t fault your choice, especially since I am eyeing it as well. Now, more pics please. And, how does the bracelet feel?
thanks zabreg! 🙏
The bracelet is very good. I like the slightly old-fashion vintage look of it; sort of looks like the early bracelets made by Wellendorf that Lange sold that were straight lug. I am not bothered by the mirror polished shine. Very comfortable for me. No 1....
Glad to hear you like it.
Thanks for the info on the bracelet. I am completely torn whether I should switch to a strap, should I happen to get the watch. Shiny bracelets are usually not my thing, but I actually quite like this one. Plus, that red #1 is great. Enjoy your new toy.
the red against the black is killer!!! 🤩
If PP could make the Aquanaut style rubber bracelet to fit the 5960A, I would immediately buy it...
That would indeed be killer.
Now, I need to figure out if I want the new Aquanaut chrono, as my AD has put me very far upfront (for what reason is beyond me).
Great fortune & Impressive! 👍👍👍
My biased opinion is to make room for the 5968 😁😆. I really like its looks, especially with the orange bracelet. If you lead a casual lifestyle, then I think the 5968 will work perfectly. I have no idea about fit & comfort though. But I have a hunch that ...
Congrats on the new addition!
Looks great on your wrist. Glad you like the bracelet too. I need to wear mine more often, especially when I can get hold of a steel pin buckle. Just my personal preference. Ken
