Torn between two Pateks
I currently have 3 Rolex's in my "collection" and thought about looking at my first PP.
I tried on and loved a YG 5146. They also had a pre-owned 3710 which has me wanting both. Obviously there is a $10000 price difference but which do you feel is more collectible. I already have dress and sport covered in my other watches. |

Collectible? Neither IMHO. Get the one you like most as they are quite different. One is a dress watch and the other a sports watch. I prefer the 5146 and if I was considering a 3710 I would get a 5711 instead. Again--it all comes down to style and preferences.

Sorry, by collectible I mean't a watch you personally want to keep in the collection and are less likely to get tired of. I already know it's the 5146 for me...thanks for the responses.

prefer 5146 out of the two choices as well. But will pick 5711 over 5146. I will be happy to consider 3700 too. 3710 dial just looks a bit weird to me.
