I don't know if it's really a concern , there are many vintage pieces that had seen hard wear in their day and seem to be still worn today.

I'm sure I would (if I could) wear this one regularly.

The beauty of Patek is if they need an out of production part they will make it for you.


Glad to see so many others see the beauty in this piece.

Only 10 pieces are made for each color, 30 in total. I was offered one salmon dial but declined. 55, a price tag around 300k Euros.
Not completely in love with the scrolling in the corners of the dial and the fact that it is using the current production movement yet asking for such a premium?


I am really drawn to the case shape and the anthracite dial of the 3670, I would consider other models if they had these qualities. The perpetual calendar 5940 Is a consideration but would prefer it with a dark dial option... Not yet available.
