Basic Automatic Mov'ts

 

Dear Patek Purists,

Actually not sure where I should post this question.
I am into "basic" automatic movement (i.e. no complications), and would like to hear from people in this forum re your opinions on various movements

First, think we would probably all agree that there could be several aspects of measure to evaluate a movement - robustness/reliability, accuracy, pleasure to view, elegance, design efficiency, in-house, etc

I suppose if we will focus only on robustness and accuracy, most of us may say Rolex's Cal 3135 would be one to go for.

The question I am pondering these days is more a movement that is pleasure to view, elegant, and displays high level of craftmanship details. Under those aspects, three movements come to my mind:
1. Patek's 315SC
2. AP's Cal 3120
3. Breguet's Cal 502

I would very much love to hear what others in this forum think/experience re the above three movements as well as your preference.

If you feel that I have left out an important automatic movement here. Please feel free to tell me.

Thanks in advance.
Tsz-Kin
