5905p or...
I have always been looking for a platinum patek and 5905p is top of the list fora long time. As I continue to research I come across of the idea of a full metal bracelet, in white gold, patek like a 5396. As an occasional watch which is a better long term option?

Do you mean value retention as long term option? IMO, annual calendars with PM bracelets look out of place. I like the 5905p but try it on since it is a thick and heavy watch.

Value and maintenance. I don't think maintenance cost will be different that much between an annual calendar vs an annual calendar with a chronograph? Also I expect platinum to be more resistant to scratch and dent?

Good looking watch and a big fan of the 60 minute timer.

How can you say no to this...
As you may have noticed, I'm also lusting for this one. Darn the beautiful thing. |

The 5905p is really so gorgeous. Did anyone have a deployant clasp with it and does that make the watch feel even heavier?

I have one as well and it is not heavier. I definitely would recommend it.

You know I have the deployant because there was a time I thought all nice watches should have one. My AD gave me the deployant for cost when I got my 5905. Today my tune has changed. I prefer the buckle clasp. It’s cleaner, sears better for me. In the future I don’t think I would order a deployant. If it comes with it great, but I don’t think I’d order it in the future. I guess age has changed my taste.
