324 movement has a cadence of 28,800 over the 21,? of the 315. Big difference is the 315 has a longer power reserve and the second hand of the 324 is a bit smoother. I think you may the wrong the 5059 seems to do well. Otherwise the 324 SQR is really not too popular no matter how it is cased.
5059J vs. 5159J movement and wrist presence.
Hello my fellow purists. I am in the hunt for a perpetual calendar. In speaking with another forum member who is quite knowledgeable on the subject he mentioned the 5059. I owned the 5054 15 years ago and loved the officers case and look on the wrist. It ...
The difference between the movements is minimal:
3 Hz vs. 4 Hz. My wrist is 8 inches and I could well wear 5059. If 5159 is so much more expensive, by all means go for the older version. Best, Kari
5059 vs 5159
I don't think there is much practical difference between the movements in the 5059 vs 5159 - that would not bother me at all. I had a 5059, but sold it. The 5059 is rather thick for its diameter; however the 5159 is better proportioned since it has a slig...
thank you
I really like the layout of the dial on the 5059, great proportions. I do not mind the thickness at all. The 5159 has beautiful guilloche center dial however. The 5059 is nostalgic for me since it reminds me of my first Patek that I wore everyday for a de...

I went with the 5059.
I liked the esthetics better and the difference in the movements was relatively minor. Of course it is a matter of personal preference. For me I found the appearance more appealing and also thought it was a good value. Good luck. I am sure that you will e...
great Pic. Thanks
It looks great. I have a call in to a dealer on a mint 5059J. I am going to try to make a deal soon. How does it wear? Does it feel larger than 36mm on the wrist? I appreciate it your help.
It wears well
I guess it feels slightly larger than 36 because of its thickness but it\'s comfortable and still fits under my shirt cuff.
