5565A all the way! ;))
I'm getting a warm feeling for this one. Though the 5105 is lovely, the former watch has that stylishly sporty look. I also love the history behind the release, not to mention the engraved back. Of course it doesn't mean I dislike the latter. If there was a third option I'd choose both. 😁

Patek Philippe 5565 A.
Some pictures I could take of this Calatrava in Steel issued in 2006 for the opening of the Geneva Salon, if my memory serves me well. Strangely, this one let me cold. I had the same feeling when I discovered the first press files photos at the time of it...
I like them both yet…
This 5105 « feels » way more Patek to me. But I’m biased I love rectangular cases (almost as much as tonneau ones 😁).
the dial of the 5565a is top, but the case is really unrefined.
Same problem as the 5055 - the case and lugs look "stamped" --> pass for me On the other hand, the rectangular example you show us is quite delightful!
5565 for me
Perfect, simple dial. They even decided to keep the applied “6”, where some others would remove it completely 😉
That 5565 is a cool watch but…
…lacks personality and Patek DNA imho while on the contrary the 5105P looks very classy with a good balance between modernity and tradition.
I don’t like the 5565, but it is pure dna, based on ref 565
The 5105, is Vintage through and through, case is based on a vintage and the movement was old stock cal 9’90”
That's exactly how I feel
If I wanted a single, simple, just tell the time watch to wear every day, I think of the 5565 as the best I could do.
here 5105P is better choice
& the movement is gorgeous to look at too. If I’ve to compare among Calatrava family then I’ll go 5196P, better than 5565 imho. Definitely 5196p is going to be cheaper than both 😜
Hi Nicolas, the 5565 to me is
well balanced and clean, while having the Calatrava DNA. The 5105 is an interesting shaped watch and is unusual. My preference is for the steel 5565 due to its elegant design.

Captin You know my feelings well on this matter since I own a 5105
I did look at the 5565 but could not bring myself to buy one Intersting they are available on the secondary market quite often these days They were made for opening of the geneva Salon and were bought by personal clients of the salon I tried to buy mine d...
I like the 5565.
This 565 is a personal favourite. I would definitely take a smaller case size to have a better placement of the sub seconds. Credit Bob Marron ...
