I think that the 2-counter chronograph has a classic and mature scent. Patek's modern chronograph-only models are particularly simple and sturdy and have their own charm.

of cource I would also like to have the Ref.130 and other older models, but they are too rare đ˘
Any manually wound Patek chrono is a special piece, and you have some of the best right there.
The 5070P and 5370P are particularly special. Two amazing pieces that really show off Patek's craft and add something subtle and special in the platinum guise.
That people prefer the 5070 with its Lemania movement and little out of proportion case size compared to movement size over the 5170 and 5172. I have the 5170 and believe it is the closest to PP manual wound chronograph DNA (130, 530, 1463 etc.)
I wouldnât say that it âsurprisesâ me because I know the 5070 has a huge fan base here. Indeed, it has a beautiful dial, but imho the case and massive bezel are quite off. I prefer the other 3, especially the 5370 đ. Stunning Chrono collection!
At first, I was just trying to trace the genealogy of modern Patek's attractive two-counter chronograph, but before I knew it, it had become a place to praise the charm of the 5070p (^^âŞ
A terrific lineup Shun --- I won't express a preference, but this chrono (sub-)collection of yours features the very finest of Patek's modern production! ;-) Enjoy.
