What should be my first patek

[pearson1995]

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get into Patek. I’ve owned Rolex, Breitling, Tudor and JLC. I know it’s regarded as the top watch brand but here is my dilemma. Where do I start?

If I’m honest I’m finding it hard to know because I feel I have alternatives I would prefer for many Patek watches...

Patek 5146 I like, but I think I prefer Lange annual calendars
Patek Chrono I like, but already have a DaytonaC and again prefer the 1815 chrono
Patek world time I feel I wouldn’t require as I have my Rolex GMT
Patek Nautilus and aquanaut, regardless of the wait, I feel my SS Rolex watches carry out the job, and dare I say I would look at a 15202 first
Patek Calatrava I love, but I own a Reverso and feel that has me covered.


Basically I need advice, if I was to go with one, I’m thinking 5146 or 5227, but I just feel there are alternatives out there I prefer on paper.


All advice appreciated
