Might as well throw the 5167R in the mix for an even 6.

Great collection Ken. It must be difficult to choose which one to wear, but i guess it is a nice problem to have.

Super foursome, I see you are a sucker for chronos

Had a few, still have one but the function doesn't appeal to me anymore, to each his own

Thanks--but I could care less about the function...All about the look and feel! To me chrono's are amazing whether I will ever use function or not. Most people will never use countdown timer on YMII, deep dive with a DSSD, race cars with Daytona, nor need the function of a double split or minute repeater. It is about the art and beauty of the watch for most. As long as it tells time I am safe and date, day, month, leap year a plus.

Love the fantastic six Ken! Enjoy them in the best of health! I am on the hunt for a 5960 next. Just not sure what I want till I see the steel version.

Thanks Kevin! For me the black is the best and I owned all 3--Super cool look and so few made for such a short time! Not easy to find but will be one to own. I like the new SS one too and look forward to see in person. My guess is they will be also not easiest to get as AD's won't get many like most SS watches Patek makes.

I am afraid you are correct! I will decide on the black or SS as soon as I see one. My AD said they were hoping to get one in August as a sample.

Ken just sold me on the 5167R on that last pic. Think I have to call my AD and make an order. Is it too weird to have steel and rose or is that a nice set for different occasions?

Brian...Nothing like the brown dial and warmth of the RG case of the 5167R! Not weird at all but my guess is you always reach for the R when wanting to wear one.
