Need ideas for third Patek

Have the 5168G in Blue and the new 5326G with baguettes. What would you guys recommend to complete the trifecta?

These things are so expensive you got to pursue what you like.

But given what you have posted a 5270 or WorldTime are my recommendations and favourites.

The 5231 is one of only a few current references that is quintessentially Patek, the 5935 is the new Patek, I just happen to really like it.

You have a great sports model, and a beautiful calendar model. I'd heavily consider a 5172G for a killer chronograph which can be dressy or casual. I prefer the white gold blue dial... but you have two already. The salmon dial may make more sense, unless you're going for a theme. If you want to get a perpetual calendar, I'd sooner look at the 5327 for a different aesthetic or a 5270. Either way, you aren't going to choose wrong. Beautiful duo!

5224R Travel Time. An unusual PP but all the better for it. You have to see one to fall for it.

The 5172G in blue is - as G&TMe says - an amazing piece.

My favourite PP is the 5230G in ivory, not Salmon. It is very discrete.

5172G as suggested by others. Sports, AC, Manual Chrono. Perfect Patek collection. All in blue which you clearly like.

I bought a 5172G in salmon last month. Love it so I will go with that too.

5172g (blue dial to match your others). What a Patek trio that would make.

My thoughts exactly the new world time would fit right in your collection.
