The PP for me.
Having both of your gems the app has a depth to it that the Chopard lacks. Both are marvelous artistryvig the PP has the edge.
I’d clearly suffer emensely if either was on my risk. 
Bravo my friend

The PP permits to recognize the motif more quickly ...

the Dream, a famous painting by Henri Rousseau and this panting is housed in the Momo in New York. Cheers, Gordon
With all due respect ....
.... but extracting a small detail from a complex painting, ripping it from its full context, leaves a better mockery. Aside the - undisputed - excellence in the watch dial's execution, it is a piece of masterly handcraft, but not of art. It is missing an...
Hi Marcus.....
......I guess we are all entitled to our own view. I have collected works of art for many years now and know only too well that interpretation of art is an incredibly subjective issue. Interpretation is, almost uniquely, in the eye of the beholder. I thin...
I recognize the artwork, but not my cup of tea
It's me, i don't like figurative paintings that much However i'm more struck by the HK concrete jungle on the wall.

Can I just say I like both?
They're just too different to favour one over the other...
I forgot you own both! 😂
The real question would be if you were forced to part with one, which would you choose to keep...?
Difficult
Would not like to wear one or the other. Bit blingy. Lion looks like it's seen a ghost. Not for me. Lion has such wierd look on it's face.
Yeah
Like it is scared by? Yes by what? A hunter with a big riffle? But I have to say that that is exactly what a like about this Patek. It has something comical about it without doubt. It is funny. That lion reminds me off The Cowardly Lion from The Wizard of...

Congrats Gordon for owning both very rare and exquistive pieces. I prefer the PP just because the colours are more vibrant and eye-catching.....
the Chopard looks more antiquated and definitely a classic.
Thanks avatarian74, these Lions want to...
hunt down your enamel Rousseau Owl ! Cheers, Gordon
Hi Fab, thanks for your kind words ! Now these two Lions want to go to...
your country for a hunt & have a GTG with your marquetry dial ! Cheers, Gordon
The PP for me.
Having both of your gems the app has a depth to it that the Chopard lacks. Both are marvelous artistryvig the PP has the edge. I’d clearly suffer emensely if either was on my risk. Bravo my friend Mitch
Neither are particularly fierce LOL!
However, I like the PP because its comical look gives it a somewhat appealing personality and sense of humor. Maybe because I know the picture's provenance, is the painter's style. Regardless, they're both beautiful pieces. Congrats! p.s. were you looking...
I like the Patek better than the Chopard.
Its a clearer dial , based on your pictures Gordon. Glad your enjoying your collection. Best wishes! Geross.
Both are exquisite...
I can't tell which one I like more... I like the brightness of the Chopard more. But I like the Patek Philippe one a lot too because I've met the artist Anita Porchet. Both are just so exquisite!
