my story
Actually before I bought my first PP, I bought Cartiers and VCs, for my wife and my self. I have also bought Rolexes for my wife.
I bought PP because I like the complication and the quality of the workmanship. At first I considered the price quite expensive. Now, I am kind of getting used to it except for the minute repeaters. LOL.
I like full dial second hand and perpetual calendar. I hope one day PP will introduce am instantaneous perpetual without the MR function, and preferably with a full second hand. I consider an instantaneous perpetual a very useful function for those that need to travel across time zones...

Favourite
I like all of my watches. I wear my world time mostly if I need to travel, 5159 and 5960 on most days, and 5970 on week ends. If I have choose my most favourite one, I will go with 5159. Probably because I like all of the features that 5159 has : perpetua...
