Patek 2016 5980 ????

[Jack Cassidy]

For me with a magnifying glass: It is the old TT 5980.

I accept that lapince may be sharper, smarter and more strategic insider insightful in the true V.I.P. Patek inner-circle.

Let us celebrate the brand new 5980 in a few month and send lapince a truly deserved Krug Champagne. Thanks!

By the way, I saw it in real and the dial was clearly one color, something just doesn't add up here, of course since again it is a Patek video they could have modified how the watch looks, also a possibility...

Look at the picture on different screens. It's TT
They show watches that were on Baselworld 2016 (5980/1AR still in production)
And its just the lighting, you see this often with watchpics on the web.



All fuzz for nothing lol

Cheers

Lol I never said I was right just that for me it was a different one, I saw what lighting can do but never to such point, but it would be awesome if they released a limited edition just like it looks on the video, white metal, matt blue dial and dark blue or black sub dial, even though I am not a chrono fan it looks so awesome I would definitely consider getting one, if they made a special LE for the 40th like this in WG it would have a huge success, PT would be cool but it would weigh a ton...

They've already done TT, RG on strap and RG on bracelet 5980. Thierry Stern said that Patek will never make a lot of steel watches, it isn't who they are. So why after discontinuing all the steel 5980's in three dial colors would they come out with something as simple as a color change on a new watch thats been discontinued. He also said that if they introduce a new steel Nautilus one would have to go and the least popular is the 5726 so my guess is that it will be discontinued and something new and different will be introduced for the 40th. A skeleton 5711? That would be awesome.

5930 is a 30 min chrono

Not sure how anyone could miss the TT on the center links!

On Wesleyvs treatment of the pic yes it looks like the TT, but the first one posted here it looks like white metal but polished, quite amazed that lighting could change the color and make it totally white like here, but with the new pic which was worked on, now it does look like the TT, so I apologize as just looking at the puc and zooming to the max it looked totally like white metal on my ipad without the slightest shade of RG
