IMHO you can't get wrong with
each of this beauties.
There were so many wise thoughts shared on this forum (especially FX made an fantastic review) that it only remains for me to express my personal taste and feelings.
Personally I like the bigger case, the rectangular pushers and the quite and discrete charm of the dial of the 5905P a little bit more. Even if this new model has less functions than its predecessor...
I'm afraid it will not really help you when I say that I would go for the black dial with its blackened calendar-indicating windows....
All the best, Thomas

5960P vs 5905P the blue dial battle.
Had the chance to compare these two blue dialed watches ,That I have been trying to choose between for along time.It was the first time to see the 5905P in metal. And What a watch!!!!! ,The weight of the watch,the wrist presence and finally the proportion...
Easy my friend!
First get 5960/1A and wear it with leather strap. Then get 5905P and spend many sleepless nights thinking "black or blue"... At least that's what I did. Best, Kari
5960/1A on Strap
Dear Kari, Do you feel 5960/1A 's lug holes are positioned differently from its P metal siblings (closer to the lug end)? The gap between the strap and case looks wider to me. But it is just my subjective feeling. Best, Damon
Let me have a close look on Friday.
I will take the bracelet off and I have two very interesting straps a watchmaker is trying to install. I will try to write a post on the subject during the coming weekend. Best, Kari
I will join your side
I've been quickly in touch with the Patek Philippe 5905P before summer and It looked very nice to me. As you did, I appreciated the proportions and the 5905 is very much in todays standards line. By the way, Fx made a review of the 5905P here on ou forum:...
I read...
the article Fx wrote a while ago on the forum and that what made me start to consider the watch,Actually I read every single article or post written on the PP forum,I spend more time reading than posting as I am new compared to most of the members so I ne...
I'm glad you find here material to fuel your thoughts
and I think you have pretty much wise thoughts about these watches. The best piece of advice I could give is to take a little time to ask yourself how you would feel with this watch on the wrist during the day. Thanks for sharing your thoughts about them ...

I am more fan of the Grey or the Steel, but looking at your picture, I suddenly remember...
This old motto: " Only the stupid never change their mind ". Best, Nicolas
Do all of you accept the....
notch on the case?I have never seen a steel piece with a leather strap,But I believe it gonna be annoying every time I look to the watch,specially its unpolished I heard. Anyone owns it?or even tried it? Best, Ahmed
I will post some pictures
on 18th of this month. Nico said something clever: "Only the stupid never change their mind". Another good one to remember is that "You can't always get everything". I think 5960/1A in leather strap with all the minor issues still represent great value. B...
Since it's release…….
The 5960P was a firm favourite of mine, especially in its original guise. Now, I believe that it has competition, for my attention, in the way of the 5905P Personally, I prefer the rectangular pushers over the rounds one, which I always believe to be an e...
Same here.
I have 5960/1A and the new version does not feel bad on the wrist... Best, Kari Sorry for the scrappy iPhone picture. I took it id AD. ...
Nice wrist shot Kari
I think the 42mm suit nicely on your wrist. I don't remember you already have an Annual Calendar, do you? Cheers, Mark
I'm not a big fan of AC and like QP much more.
The only AC I have is 5960/1A which I bought thinking about the white details in the dashboard of my Porsche Targa 4 GTS. But today I paid the downpayment for a Bentley Bentayga. Most probably I will not buy a Breitling so perhaps 5905P could be the answe...
Of course.
I look so much at the 5960 for its style, finishing and colors that I forgot it was an Annual Calendar... I must say I also have a great appeal for a Perpetual Calendar, even it the AC is finally very interesting, at a more affordable price point. Interes...
Nobody knows the delivery time...
"Money first" is the name of the game. Then the final factory order is placed and the production place is given. Preliminary Q2 2016. Why do you say that it's an interesting choice? I think that's about the most logical family car. I need a SUV to visit L...
Interesting choice
Well, this is a new model from a brand I would not have thought about when dealing with such type. However, I think the quality of the interior will be top notch. So quality, finishing of the interior and highly luxurious brand not used to proposing SUVs ...
True.
But 600 hp, 900 nm, 4.1 sec from 0 to 100 km/h and a top speed of 301 km/h makes it faster than Belarus tractor. Finally, it's costing very well equipped the same as 5370P... Best, Kari
This is an alternative solution for a 5960/1 with strap
Some straps don't stop between the lugs but reach and are applied against the case, like in the picture below. I know leather straps can be made that way (I don't know their name). Hence, it will hide the notch. ...
I have the standard strap
and like pictured is ordered. I wait it to arrive in 2 weeks. I'll PM you the contacts. Best, Kari
If there is some kind of strap that is going to cover the notch.....
Then this is a game changer Best, Ahmed
