Case in point
One has to say that this is one of my better photographic attempts. The sensual lines of the subject matter being my 3971 helped as did the fabulous day that blessed this photo with a unique light effect.
The case of the 3971 is curvaceous and flowing to say the least. An element that, in my humble view is largely missing in Patek’s new generation of chronos.
Good things do come in smaller packages.
Six months on, this is still my favourite manual Patek Philippe chrono.
