Why no love for 5960P?

I’m wearing my 5960P grey dial today and just love the watch. Annual calendar, chrono, power reserve, day/night indicator, platinum. $40K. What am I missing?

Great watch!

Unfortunately they just made too many of them in far too many variants to preserve value. That should not dampen your enjoyment as you got in at a great level.

Congratulations

$40K was rough figure. Agreed $45K seems to be norm.

It’s a fantastic watch!!! And for the money, one of the best deals around. It’s a lot of watch for less than a basic nautilus. I put mine on a gray alligator strap and it looks magnificent!!!

I had bought the 5960p grey dial twice , I really like the 5960P. But I think the overproduction of it plus the fact that strap watches in general are doing terrible on the market doesn’t help

They made a ton. I wish it didn’t have an annual calendar or else I’d be game.

Yep. If it was just the chronograph, similar to the 5968, it would be perfect.

Nothing, it´s a great watch. I like the 5960P-016 with black dial a lot.

Also the 5960G Moscow edition is really nice, I´d love to own one of these.

Been wondering the same.. it has great specs with in-house chrono AND annual calendar. Only negative I've found is the relative chunkiness with 13-14mm height and 50mm lug-to-lug. Most attractive for me is also 5960P-016 or grey dial ones.

It’s a great watch, I even prefer the grey dial, which is probably the most common

Generally there is no love for the 5960 series. I think Patek over produced the reference including the steel version. ADs could not sell these watches for years and almost every AD I have visited had a 5960 in stock. I can recall few years ago one of the special order 5960/1A-011 (rarest of all versions) was sold significantly below MSRP.
