Opinions needed...ref.1436 or ref.3448,
which one sings to you more?
Also, how do you compare these to a 5970?
Please be brutally honest as possible.....I just need some sense knocked onto me 
Cheers,
CL

1436!!!
By: aaronm : October 9th, 2009-10:26
but it's not a fair fight in the least. Patek makes far more perpetual's of any design than they've made rattrapantes of all designs. The 3448 is a lovely watch, but I don't see "magic" in it. For wearing purposes, rather than going in the vault, never to...

.... well, well, well. Slightly different, but a much closer fight. Lets see, i personally would narrow down the following : 1463J vs 3448J - i pick 3448J 1463ss vs 3448J - no doubt 1463ss 1463J vs 3448G - 3448G in a heart beat 1463R vs 3448J - 1463R 1463...
