Patek Philippe

I have to admit that the SS bracelet is VERY comfortable. Having said that, the polished bracelet is still a little too attention grabbing for my taste. I tried a few different strap variations and I think I'm finally getting close to one that I like... I...  

I love it so much that this may be one of the few modern Patek I could add in my meager collection. Bravo. Nicolas

Glad you like it Vlad. You'd better hurry though...

If you can live without new.

This watch appears at least on Patek's home page. When I bought it a couple of months ago, it was not difficult to get. Best, Kari

and now I'm trying to get a very nice buckle. Will send pictures when it's done. Best, Kari

this strap color and texture fits so well with your PP! Bravo! :) Cheers Robin

I like that 5960/A very much since I tried it and there are so many possibilities with straps. Thanks for sharing your experience again and again Jester! Cheers, Mark

I like it a lot. Nice combination there. Have a good one.

I must say that although I do love the dial design (which raises the heckles of the traditionalists), tactile feel of the pushers is a disappointment vs other handwound column wheel chronos. And the movement finish cannot be said to be class leading any l... 

Excellent! The main value of this chrono is its coolness. you want more refined? Go for a JLC Duometre or a Lange Dato first generation, or a Montblanc Villeret. As for the pushers, I will have to try one in the real life. As for the bracelet, I totally a... 

I was a bit disappointed as well. I compared the pushers on my 5960/1A vs. 5960P and they both felt similarly 'hard'. By no mean comparable to the likes of 5070. Now regarding movement finishing, do you feel that the movement finishing on the steel versio... 

Although I do not have the earlier Plat version or seen one, my understanding is that Patek finishes its watches to a single standard irregardless of the casing metal. The tactile feel of the pushers does loosen up a bit after a few applications, but comp... 

I'm quite a fan of this reference, but reading the comments above it seems that PP have (or are going to) stopped production? Or am I (hopefully) interpreting things incorrectly?

Ref: 5905 has already been announced since the Basel fair in April this year so it's fair to assume Patek are just casing the remaining 5960 movements in SS case, making it affordable to shift the stocks.

However, as the other 5960 versions (gold, platinum) have been discontinued and some are thinking the new 2015 5905 reference can replace the 5960 line-up, it may be true. Just a guess. Cheers, Mark

However, this combo is quite nice. The bracelet is quite ostentatious but it's a beauty swinging both ways. So, congrats and ENJOY!

BUT the strap selection from most of the manufacturers are far from satisfactory hence I had no choice but to use my imagination.
