What a coincidence, Marco...
I saw one for sale, recently, and I was thinking about getting it, as it would be a nice complement for my " Amagnetic collection "...
I only have the Geophysic for the moment, but I'm hunting the Omega CK 2914 ( Railmaster ), the IWC Ref 666 ( I cant pass on this one ...
), and the Milgauss 1019.
This PP is one I didn't even know since I saw it for sale, and I had to do my homework before deciding to go for it.
So, if it is the one you got, it shows that we obviously hunt on the same grounds, my friend.
Bac to the watch, it is a superb specimen ,understarted, elegant, which reminds me a bit the JLC Geophysic ( except the small second ).
Superb!
Best,
Nicolas

You're right it's a Stainless Steel case
You're right it's a Stainless Steel case, it is about 50 years old. It is about 35,5 mm not including crown. I'm happy that You like it This message has been edited by mstanga on 2010-08-25 12:07:22
Oh yes. Simple is best for the long run. I really would ...
... like to have a modern variant, say 38-39 mm. I like how the dial is formed. This is subtly a very very nice design. Perhaps Patek will announce something like this at Basel 2011. I can always hope. Ciao. This message has been edited by NoMilkToday on ...
but a modern variant...
could not have the same vintage taste e for sure not a movement like old 27AM400 (IMHO) Ciao
A beautiful share, Marco
I am glad to see these photos of this remarkable PP. She continues to look in such fantastic condition for a 50-year old. I hope I look that good when I turn 50. Not likely, I'm afraid. I am surprised we do not hear more of the 3417 on teh forum, but the ...
Thank You
Thank You, respo, It would be nice if you will try to translate my review into English. Marco
My apologies
Marco, I am afraid my command of Italian is virtually non-existent, so I cannot do the translation. I struggle to translate bits and pieces for myself, but I could not do justice in a translation for anyone else. There are some photosgraphs of English tex...
It's not a problem ...
I will try to ask to a italian friend of mine that works in England since a lot of time Ciao Marco
You're not mistaken...
very few were maden, the first ones housed a 12-400 and the others housed the incredible beatiful 27AM400. Not all dial was signed with "amagnetic" Ciao Marco This message has been edited by mstanga on 2010-08-25 13:46:48
Marco, it's a lovely looking Patek.....
And in a beautiful condition. How long have you owned her?
Amagnetic Love
Oh dont start me on the virtues of the Amagnetic!!!! Hurry up with that translation Marco!!!!!
A classic watch..
Yes too share the same views on the dial and the ref.I prefer the variant with Anti Magnetic on the dial though.It was the first non-design (on which my collection is based) centric vintage Patek that attracted me, Another one in the same vein is the rare...
My absolute favorite Patek of all time, bar none...
Would give my left arm for Patek to make a contemporary version...of course, then I'd have to wear the watch on my right! Beautiful watch...thanks for posting pics.
