Thank you for your beautiful photos as always Nico
They make us appreciate our watches more. I'm waiting for my 3941J to come back from Dr. Patek after a maintenance tune up. I miss it.
Some pictures of the Patek Philippe 3940J...
Before they went in a very good home. I am usually not a yellow gold fan, but here I must say that this metal goes very well with the Classic character of this watch. Best, Nicolas ...
Many complicated and dressy watches that trace their roots back to the 80s or thereabouts do still look good in yellow gold
This one certainly does. Quite beautiful.
Post quartz crisis pivot
Started with Breguet and then Blancpain's revival under Biver in 1983. Well and Patek obviously. Lol.
I have to agree on all points here
The watch looks stunning The yellow gold suits her perfectly I think yes it must be a very good home 😉
Hi Nicolas, the 3940 is a
classic PC ! Proportions are so well balanced👍 Glad you got to enjoy it and the fact that it was yellow gold must have meant that you cared for this piece very much.
Class PP PC...one of Patek's very best. Timeless size and style.
Interesting concave bezel. I thought all bezels on the 3940s were rounded, but it seems the very early ones were concave. Is that right?
I confirm that the bezel is concave on this 3940
A picture is better than a thousand words… 😉 Not only it is the case on this mark 1 series (merci Nico for the nice pics 😉👌👌) but unless I am mistaking it it is also the case on the later series. Only its successor the ref 5140 has a convex bezel like so ...
Interesting. Thank you for the details. Perhaps I assumed the 5140 bezel was a continuation from the 3940.
I think the convex bezel is a nice case detail. Lovely watch.
Merci Nico
Actually it was just a quick photo taken with my iPhone for showing the detail of the concave bezel
Thank you for your beautiful photos as always Nico
