what are your favorite three pateks from the current lineup, each under 120K USD

this could also have impact on my collection building strategy...i am not into vintage, let us stay with the present lineup please, and each watch under120K....
i am very interested to know your opinions!!!!

In my humblest view, these are the 3 most beautiful Pateks.

The 5270p runs a close fourth but it is way above the 120k cutoff.

3970J, 5131G, 5070 G = modern but discontinued

5712, 5711 and 5164 = current production

Not necessarily my favourites (I couldn’t for example in all honesty say I think a 5711 is nicer than a 5170p), but the top 3 I think are worth buying are: 5711/1a (blue), 5990 and 5131p. But I would say chose anything from 5711/1a, 5712/1a, 5990, 5740, 5164, 5968, 5131/1p
