I sure like chronographs
Not sure why I love chronographs as much as I do. Perhaps it’s the precision of being able to see precisely how long something takes. I am just not sure. But whatever it is I can’t stop, I am crazy about these little machines.
I have several but these are my big three. I feel very fortunate. What are your favourite complications and why? And for me white metals are preferred. How about you? |

Amazing trio indeed!
In my mind chronographs are the most useful complication. Unlike most people here I will never get any GMT or travel time watch as I am happy to do that little math myself... At this point I have just got non-complicated Pateks in steel and platinum as I prefer white metal as well. In terms of complication I would like to get a chrono and a PC eventually. I don't like the AC designs and a PCC would be too complicated for simple man in me. If they came through for me at the AD I would certainly add a 5968A and a 5740/1G. Possible alternatives include the 5170G and 3940J, the latter in yellow gold to add some color. |

Lovely trio. Don’t you think the 5170p is kinda redundant? Does it get any wrist time?
I mean if I had to he two on the right, id probably never wear the 5170. |

I acquired the 5170 first, it gets in the rotation. Personally I think long term it will be appreciated much more than it is today. First manual wind chrono with an in-house movement and sold for a short run. I see it as the envy of many collectors down the road.

I love chronos too, I think the classic three subdial layout is what I always pictured a sports watch to be when I was young and I was always a sports polymath so stands to reason.
Love that triple slam! |

Impressive trio. Chronographs, along with moonphases for their aesthetics, are my favorite complication as well.
