5960/1A on strap
By: Jester : April 17th, 2015-19:40
yes I did it! I wore it on bracelet for one week straight. While it's admittedly very comfortable, I wanted something a little more discreet. So I dug through my strap inventory & found a nato strap that works well in sizes. I'm having a few straps ma...
Awesome

This is such a beautiful watch as it is, but in my opinion on a strap goes another level higher. Thanks for posting the close up pics, particularly the last one. It looks fantastic. Looking forward to what you have coming on order!

Will do

That red chrono second hand

PERFECTLY captures the essence of Vlad. So tell me, how can you NOT have it???
Sorry my friend

I wasn't a fan of this watch in steel to start with. But it looks hideous to me on whatever it is you put it on. Sorry.
Too bad you didn't like it...
By: Jester : April 18th, 2015-11:08
but I guess we all have different tastes and that's what makes the world interesting.
Nice move Jester

The 5960 1A is really appealing and unique as a sporty watch in Patek's collection an even history as I don't remember seeing this kind of outfit in the 50's - 80's. The birth of a hit. A strap shape I would consider if it was mine is a strap which end (c...
Agree a fully fitted
By: Jester : April 18th, 2015-11:06
strap would be great but my strap maker doesn't have any 5960 to fit on and I'm certainly not keen to loan him mine for the fitment. :-) Will certainly keep you posted on further development!
Yes please !

I think that many of us here on PuristSPro will see this 5960 A a very different way :) Cheers, Mark
long lugs
By: the_real_muttley : May 8th, 2015-02:13
i liked the watch but not the steel bracelet, so it will be very interesting to see how your experiment goes. i'm a little concerned about the relatively long lugs and the need to customise the strap (more than usual) to flush it to the case. please post ...
I thought about that
By: Mark in Paris : April 20th, 2015-06:35
The racing holes of racing straps would suit perfectly to the watch's shape of course but also to the subdial at 6. I don't think either that the Nautilus is what we can really call a sport watch. This description for the Nautilus always troubled me a lit...
For me the real Patek sporting watch is
By: dr.kol : April 20th, 2015-08:13
5167 Aquanaut. The second place goes to 5711 Nautilus. Why? Both watches are water resistant to 120 meters making them perfectly suitable for swimming and snorkelling. My plan during the coming summer is to dive with both of these watches but I will not g...
I overlooked the waterproof creterion...
By: Mark in Paris : April 20th, 2015-08:44
In fact I had in mind the look and spirit aspects (colors combination, steel...) more than the toolwatch skills (waterproof capabilities, case resilience to shocks and scratches...). I would wear the 5960 in a rocket but you're right, for thougher activit...
Going underwater with a Patek
By: dr.kol : April 20th, 2015-08:49
does not worry me at all. If they promise 120 meters then it must be 120 meters. And if the watches will leak, I am sure Patek will repair those very fast. Like said, I will get the water resistance checked and luckily there is a Tiffany also close to Wai...
I fully agree
By: Mark in Paris : April 20th, 2015-08:59
I have a friend spending summer time in the water with his 5711. It always behave perfectly. As you said, a little pressure check-up before leaving and there you go. Cheers, Mark
Resilience capabilities
By: Mark in Paris : April 20th, 2015-08:48
yes, I forgot this model. As I said to Kari, it is indeed much more of a tool-watch considering unruly activities, and off course underwater sports. My vision of the 5960 is really Racing and thus a sportier look than a Nautilus which remains a little bit...
You guys are

Super like it on a strap!
By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : April 29th, 2015-03:18
Great choice Jester! I think the strap is nicer than the bracelet - good to change back to the bracelet sometimes when you feel like having some bling back Cheers Robin
