As I have previously posted on the issue of dato and comfort, a deployant (ss or plat) works wonders. The weight is supported by the ends of the deployant, and so do not feel much on the top of my wrist.
Really nice Pateks! My issue would be when servicing, and possibly in need of parts, do collectors take these type vintages to a qualified watchmaker who don’t have access to Patek parts or do you pay up for authorized servicing? Thanks.
Congratulations on this purchase. I have had mine for about 20 years. The case size was made for this movement and case is very thin, which further compliments the thin movement. And very comfortable.
My dato original sits the same way. A moot point. It is not top heavy with a butterfly clasp deployant. Could even be ss. The clasp on the bottom of your wrist will support the weight when you turn your wrist and the watch leans. Don't feel my watch on at all. Its a simple fix.
