Hello Patek People,

I love wrist watches and I especially love Patek Philippe.

I have managed by acquire a few minor references.

The 2 most beautiful wrist watches of modern times (say the past 30 years) would be these 2.

JLC Reverso Grand Date - 8 day power reserve, 2 disc date ...... just a delight

Patek 5110P - just the most beautiful watch in the world (excluding vintage Patek references like the 2499, 1518, 2523 etc)

The grand date is fantastic .

Especially with a JLC stainless steel bracelet for the summer and a casa Fagliano watch strap for winter.

considering that Patek's reference 124 in the 30's was supplied the 8-day movement from JLC, and PP's first world time watches had JLC movements. These days, they are 2 of the only companies making their movement, case and bracelet (both buy straps and gl...

... but your 5127, 5196, and 5296 would get more wrist time for me. Sometimes less is more.
