......i think the black dial version of the 5070 is growing more and more on me

I am absolutely not a colored gold guy, but I must admit that, in this case...

I would happily amke an exception. The combo black dial / YG case is just enhancing the vintage character of this chronograph. Congratulations! Bet, Nicolas. PS: A quick picture I took some years ago to welcome yours. ...  

thanks

Thanks for the kind remarks. Yes I am usually a white only fan as well. That black dial was calling me! best regards

The White Gold is elegant, very elegant, but not as strong as the black dialed YG.

Great shot! I love them all for different reasons. And I love the same magical movement in each!

as a series of metals/dials

the 5070 represents the absolute best of Patek in recent years....each of these watches has SUCH a different personality. I know I love the P above the others, but I genuinely cannot decide what I like next...maybe all of them equally? I dont know. I have... 

What's a LT plan? [nt]

Long Term....

.....ie i can't do it now!!!

Silly me. Yes, that project would require some time.... And money.

But you did the most difficult with the P.

5110 project similarly has merits too

Winding

Tough long term decisions for sure! to the experts of this movement: I'm a bit new to manual winding. Do you wind your 5070 until it stops or do it until you feel a little tension? Thanks!

Yes, until it stops. [nt]
