Indeed.
And I personally think Patek should make much better looking and better decorated central rotors in their current collection.
The most beautiful Patek Philippe central rotor?
Why are Patek Philippe central rotors no longer as beautiful as this one (calibre 12-600 AT)? If you're interested in this topic, you might want to check AndCavanaugh's thread dedicated to Four Generations of Patek's Central Rotor Automatic Movement . Hav...
I agree the 12-600AT rotor is one of the most beautiful
It was the first automatic Patek movement AFAIK, and I imagine this had a lot to do with the effort put into decorating the rotor (the rest of the movement finishing is great as well). The 2526 was also a very expensive watch when it was released, priced ...
Yes, I really like less the rotor of the 27-460.
But the micro rotor of the R 27 repeaters is very nice. ...
Yes, I really wish they would adopt such a level of decoration
in most of their models. I find their regular central rotor very underwhelming.
They could and should, imo.
To get a PP hand finished caliber with interior angles, you have to turn to the most expensive models. Even a €140k watch like the in-line pc 5236p has a mostly machine finished caliber. That really takes me away from PP.
The Patek 5180 has about 150 interior angles and is cheaper than a 5236
I'd still take the 5236 though!
The guilloche
does look very beautiful ! If the watch had a crystal back then it would be perfect !

AGREED! This is very nice.
The style/design of the current version has always been a pet peeve of mine.
