6159 is a masterpiece (maybe not the 26330 base)
6196 looks brilliant but they should have made a rg/wg version as well |

I don't know if you noticed on the Lange & Sohne side, they released 2 1815 versions in... 34mm. We'll see if the trend spreads in the future...

I like what they did with the 5328 (case, dial layout, style). It's a new manual caliber, with the 5200's complication (it seems?). Patek never stands still regarding movements.
I LOVE the 5370R and 6159 The others are interesting yet not my personal taste. A good year imho. |

Liking the 6196p. Hopefully there will be a slightly more affordable g out next year! The cubitus looks far better than last year release for my taste. Maybe the proportions just look better.

Not impressed overall but then I may be suffering from a serious case of Patek fatigue.
The 6196 is what everybody was waiting for and in 38mm still very wearable. But I have never liked that movement ("wavy" layout of the bridges not attractive in my eyes) and the color combo is not for me. I'd go 5296 for that look and size (bar the salmon dial) as I can live with a date and a rotor and prefer a central second. Love the sportier look and dial on 6159 but personally not a big fan of retrograde date watches (would always go 3940 over 5050, for example) and not into hobnail bezels at all. Lastly, I hate to admit it but the WG 40mm Cubitus grey blue is a good looking watch. And priced even above 5811/1G. |

I notice they are starting to add the Nautilus/Aquanaut new buckle to the "traditional" models. I wonder if we'll loose in comfort or elegance (is it thicker?).

On level I can afford, 6196P is very nice but I'm going to wait to see other dial colour dials next year or later before jumping on a Calatrava. 5328G is lazy. It's just a rehash of the 5100 movement from 25 years ago. Would even say 5100 bridges are better shaped and more coherently ordered.

Check out the significant size difference between the men's and medium size Cubitus.

Thanks for sharing - very interesting! Somewhat of a high price in my humble opinion for a time/date option. Very much look forward to seeing these in the metal!

Epic! Just like the black and blue variants before it 🫠.
I also like the 4946R ![]() The 53o8 is nice too, but 17 mm thick... ![]()

I like the 5328 at about 1/2 the price!

I was very pleasantly surprised trying the “large” version, which I didn’t find appealing in the release photos. I have an approx 7inch wrist but a big guy overall (height). |

the diamond set into the case at 6PM on the 6196 kills it for me. Such a shame

Re: 6196p - All Patek platinum watches have a diamond set into the cases at 6:00, primarily visible to the one wearing it.
