Elegance severely lacking here. The 5712 is asymmetric and off balanced but they somehow got it right.
Safe to say your not a fan? ;) FG!

The black dial 5204P is really sexy

Some nice stuff. I really like the nautilus...kind of a combo of the nautilus and my 5164...cool stuff.

The 5204P, 5140R and the 5950's are beautiful, but I'm not a fan of the Nautilus and the 5960A. It means I can continue dreaming about the 5726/1A

I saw some on Instagram as well.

Interesting!

I like the 5960 but if it was on a strap.

Wow so that steel 5960 that everyone was saying must be fake and photoshopped is actually real? I hope not.

The Nautilus is too busy for me but the combination of rather functional complication's will make it a good seller.

Favourite piece is definitely the 5951P. Absolutely stunning piece.

The 5078R is beautiful but unless Patek have decided to make it at least a bit water resistant, I will never truly be a fan.

I love Basel for some reason. Even seeing new Patek's that I'd never be able to afford

It's real and made in SS. Hodinkee confirmed it 10 minutes ago. The retail price is $54,800.

Patek has produced a number of busy looking dials this year:)
