Yes both 5960 and 5980 share the same counter.
That said I checked both watches were launched the same year so I guess the term can apply to both as you mentioned. I just never heard the the nickname for the 5960. The 5980 counter color layout has a big blue dot in the center surrounded by a white circle. That’s what I thought they meant with bullseye.

Oh crap…let me check 😱
Usually I’m super careful on my watches but I did carefully place this one slowly and took the photo so it’s all good, phew 😅 Thanks for the kind nick-name 🙏🏻
I agree with Fabrizio on 1 and 2!
But, I do have to add that your photo set-up is the 💣!!! Artistry!
Glad to hear my home made stuff get good reviews 🙏🏻
It appears the rim on the loupe is not metallic so it’s ok, no scuff marks on the case.
No.1 is my reflex thinking too......
However, it is indeed an excellent portrait of a gorgeous Patek.
No watches has been hurt in this “shooting”, photo shoot I meant. Thanks both very much.
I pamper my watches like babies 😊
The design of the A versions are very nice, I have to say…
I will still prefer A over P but 51 vs 49 kind of situation, really tough.
Correct me if I’m im wrong but I think the bullseye name came from the 5980.
It having a similar dial design it carried over. Lovely 5960 photo btw. One of my most favorite pateks 👍
The name applies to the counter style and it does appear in the 5980…
Here’s the latest: “The 5960 has been lauded for its sporty feel, generous dimensions without sacrificing wearability, and innovative dial layout with the calendar indications on the top part of the dial and the chronograph indications on one single subdi...

Absolutely love that version of 5960!
Its on my wish list. Cant decide if I start a patek relationship with 5205G or buy this pre-owned for close to the same price. Thoughts are welcomed!
I see your dilemma…starting a relationship with a first Patek is very important indeed…
It will open the door for the future for you. The good thing is these 5960Ps are still under appreciated…so you might still have time for the P or G version, but not the A version.
Stunning shot of the most underrated Patek on the planet.
Not sure I like Bullseye 🎯 but do understand where it comes from. This version being the original is still my favourite by a mile and I am still as mesmerised by this watch today as I was when it was introduced. For me this watch should be impossible to g...
Owning this since last Jun, this watch has always look amazing every time I took it out to wear.
I chose this over the A version because of the value like you mentioned. I do like the nickname and I think owners like you and me hit the bullseye 👍🏻 Thanks for your kind comments.
Lol….I’ll take it. Can you contact Phillips to make the changes 😅👌🏻

I also noticed that too but what doesn’t…
Almost all watches are showing up trend from inflation and overflowing of funds from hype models to other older sleeper Speedmasters, independents etc.
Very true.
I just hope this watch gets the recognition it so deserves. I will never understand this models slow start off the blocks compared to far less complicated less good looking models. I do not accept the “there were too many made” reason either. I challenge ...
To my surprise, when one member did the roll call...
the P versions are actually less than A or G. I think we stick to the value of Pt and in time, will tell. Enjoy ours M!
What about, ‘Mr Under-appreciated’ (MUA).
Ever since it’s release back in 2006 (?) I had wanted this but never got round to it. I was patient, bided my time, eventually just pulled the trigger. My main worry was it going up in value, but luckily for me it just did not. Just great value.
Yes and yes…Mr Under-appreciated Wonderful…I have been waiting till the right moment last Jun.
I think at some point, people are going to realize this over the famous time only cousins.
Not sure they will.
As I believe that anyone that values one of those time only watches more than a serious complication will never see the light. 💡 M.
