overlooked 2015 releases

Talking about non-complicated pateks, these two models seemed great in their 2015 versions. what do you guys think?

5153R


6000G


maybe not our favorite references from the brand but i do think they are beautiful iteration(colorwise) of the existing models.

Reverse that for me.

Love the simplicity and rose gold case.

I particularly like the 6000G, but blue is my favorite color. I was not aware they still made the watch. I owned the black/white 6000G version several years ago, and liked the movement exhibition back as much as the front!

The Blue dial 6000G replaced the anthracite dial which I actually liked better, the anthracite is very uncommon.

I like the blue, but the existing rose and chocolate is more stunning.

I can't get past the crown on the 5153. I know it's classic, but to me it's overbearing for such a simply calatrava.

My thoughts exactly regarding the crown, it's the first thing that catches my eye.
I prefer the blue dial 6000g, however.

I agree that the blue dial 5124 looks nice as well. With the 5200G ramping up production, two nice blue dial Gondoalas will be on the market, although at a different price point.

I don't hear any discussion about the new 5227G black dial. What do you guys think?

I can see a simple Patek RG dress watch in my distant future, that one is quite nice.

Like the 6000g. It is different, but not overly complicated.

Heres the only live pictures i can find of the 6000g, looks promising. Hope some of our members who went to baselworld could show us a few more.

This watch checks a few things for me:
1. Blue Dial
2. 240 movement (mini rotor)
3. Calatrava Cross clasp



http://patek.watchprosite.com/?page=...8&s=0&size=raw

If only it was 1-2mm larger, hoping to see one in the flesh soon.

For some reason, this new RG PC (5496R) has been under the radar so far at Basel 2105.

The 6000g is looking great! hope to see one in the flesh soon, still looking for more live pics or any wrist shot to see how the blue dial looks.

Another photo with some of the 2015 releases that are all beautiful.
