The Patek is beautiful but personally I prefer the AP, the skeleton dial is incredible. You have one of my favorite watches!!

As much as I drool over a 5980 1R, I have to vote for the 15305 here. Just can't beat it.

5980/1r no question. AP openworked is best in SS IMO.

I have the 15407or and the 5980/1R...and as much as I love my PP, I would not give up an AP openworked for it.

Patek for me, a RG Nautilus is rather sublime.

Surprised it's ahead on the poll over here. Obviously would be a landslide over there.

I have a 15407OR and will dump that in the very near future and keep the 15305or when the 5980/1R comes in. Personally the 39 fits my wrist much better and there are far fewer 15305or's on bracelet than the double balance. Not to mention the 15407OR's are at the peak, they'll only dump after AP releases their Basel collection IMO. (not that i know anything that might be released )

UPDATE: I've kept the 15305OR & 5980R and will not dump either when the 5980/1R comes in. I decided to part with my 26320OR and when the 5980/1R comes ill part way with the Ceramic Daytona & ROO.
