The never ending allure of the 5960p

This is a piece, that I always come back to. What a watch! And it has stood the test of time already magnificently. Cheers. R

Are auction prices 'real'?

I was looking for some articles on the Patek ref. 5135P Annual Calendar. I came across a Sotheby's listing for an auction in September/October of 2025, so not too long ago. This one hammered at 25,400 Euros, or about $30,000 U.S. That seemed incredibly lo

The stuff dreams are made of

To me, the 5960, in all iterations and metals, but especially in platinum, is the definition of Patek Philippe in the first quarter of the 21st century. This is what horological history is made of. Design, complications, practicality, complexity. All of t

There is no bad 5960, I must say.

I like it!

Any 5960p blue love?

Please seem to like the grey dial but I’m partial to the blue. The correct blue hue is quite hard to capture

Patek Philippe 5960/A. Another nice reference from Patek.

A recent photo taken in Paris some weeks ago. Eye catching, in my opinion. Best, Nicolas

5960 Hump day

For some reason I think it looks better with the Chronograph running which is luckily not an issue with this watch

Like you, I am not the biggest Patek fan. Only a few watches please me, and a lot, like the 5110P, the 5100, the 5070, the 5970, the 5960, and a very few others.

I much prefer some of their older references. As for this 5235, I am not a fan at all. The dial is full of holes. But it is just my personal taste, my friend. And I totally understand that some others can be very pleased with this one. Best, Nicolas

Finally I’ve found the right fit for my 5960p

Absolutely love the 5960p but just always wanted to jazz it up a bit. Tried many straps but for me this one makes the red dial detail pop and will certainly be a talking point. Have a good weekend Amigos. 😎 M.

Not my favorite 5960: too sporty and colourful

and I don't like obtrusive laser engraved casebacks. Pt grey dial is much more appealing to me.
