Patek Philippe

True, my bad: Victorin Piguet caliber.

 

Should’ve looked better. Thanks for the correction!

Patek Philippe Minute Repeaters

Here are 39 models ordered more or less by increasing complexity. Have a nice Sunday. 1. SMALL SECONDS Henry Graves Jr.'s Minute Repeater (cal. no. 97,589) credit: Hodinkee Ref. 2419 (cal. ?) credit: hodinkee Ref. 2524 (cal. ?) 2524/1 (credit: Hodinkee) 2...  

Wonderful choice, of course!

My personal favorites belong to the "small seconds only" category (the Graves, the 3652, 3979 & 5178, in particular). If I could pick one, it would probably be the 3979.

Plenty indeed!

One for each taste, but not for each budget 😬😅

This model has grown on me time. Found it awkward

on release. Could spot some in the wild a really gorgeous piece. Calendar indication is so much more legible. My father has two retrograde PC Pateks and they are not so readable even if the retrograde triple complication models you displayed remain gorgeo... 

Ref. 3652... tho would go rg with enamel black dial, raised Breguet Arabic and hands, minute droplets.

Of course it would be different if was a rapper... or sports figure.... or Ruler of an oil-rich Middle-East country....

I love this reference too

and I love it that you have such a clear view of how you would want it. I personally like it as it is on the photo I’ve found.

My fav would be the

5178 with breguet numerals and hands.. simplicity is hardest to perfect

Yes, so attractive!

I would probably go for the 3979. But it’s just pure photo-based dream of course…

I have always been biased for

Arabic or breguet numerals.. this ladies MR is also very attractive with the officer style case, ref 7004R - but printed numerals (as opposed to 5178’s applied) ...

I listened to a Hodinkee video from 2013 with 9 different MR and I was surprised to like regular gongs more than cathedral… Link below: https://youtu.be/oNHP0qWId8I

Nice to know!

And i certainly agree that the idée remains very evocative!

Very nice choice!

The tonneau shape and retrograde date are very nice-looking !

What a wonderful choice!

I love the cream dial one even more, but both are gorgeous!

Thanks for the kind words!

 
By: quattro : October 27th, 2024-21:08
I really love 3979 too. But 5013 has a lot of charm with the tonneau case and retrograde date!

I just wish I had properly identified ref. 541 as a perpetual calendar, but there was a lot of data to deal with and despite my spreadsheet I didn’t manage to get it right! No new ideas yet as I’m about to spend the week in Spain! Best.

I like the look very much, but

I would prefer a manual winding model (with tourbillon like 3939 would be a dream).
