I knew there was i reason I put this channel on first every day. Rolex and an exhibition case back. Learn new things every day.
It's not even close. I'd take any of the 4 Cellini Prince models over the Patek. Heck, I'd happily own all four of them rather than a Hulk, Pepsi, or Datona. They are beautiful watches to me as I like art decco. To me personally, they show that Rolex can do watches with real elegance style, and fully finished movements and a sense of fun. People talk about the Millgauss being the Rolex that goes outside the Rolex style. I say these do it even more and in a much more attractive manner.
id take the rolex as a rare piece and art deco goodness
I'd rather stay with my Riverso as a matter if preference. I
For the price of a steel Reverso, you get a white gold Rolex. Hmmm
Nice look at two unusual pieces. Thanks Tim.My rule of thumb is Rolex for tool watches and Patek for dress watches.
The Rolex for me
That Cellini Prince is often called "The Doctor's Watch" IIRC.
@@MT-kx2uc I'm interested in that.Why are they called Docter's watch?
@@shun3262 originally when released in the 30s(I think?) it was popular amongst doctors due to the sub seconds dial which presumably was used for pulse timing and became a bit of a status watch
Really love the Rolex! One day...
The Rolex is more visually interesting, the Patek sleeker and better finished...especially the movement! Overall you can see the Patek is a much more high-end watch. Even if I like the Rolex here more. But the Reverso is nicer than both.
I'd have loved the yellow gold prince in grey or rose gold. Both of these models are great, between the two and the reverso tribute small seconds I really would struggle to choose...
I’ve seen more interesting and subtle dials on other Rolex Prince models with much more interesting casework and faceting. The case on the Patek is gorgeous and outdoes the case on my rose gold Cartier elongated tank. The dial for the sweep second hand on the bottom of this particular Prince reminds me of the clock on my parent’s 1970’s Caloric stove. I know that the influence came from the other direction but I had to chuckle.
Bruce Solomon I read your comment imagining Tim’s voice LOL
Other than the fact they're both rectangular, they're so stylistically different, but each uniquely beautiful, that I don't feel that it's really possible to unequivocally choose one over the other. I can comment on the Rolex from direct experience as an owner. While the review of the watch in ths video is comprehensive, I would certainly emphasize just how beautifully this watch "plays" with light. The design of the face with its sunburst faceting is just extraordinary in the way light "dances" on the watch. I just love this aspect of the watch. As well, the overall face design is so very unique and stimulating to behold. It visually reaches out, while the Patek is far more demur, but often that demur homage to tradition is often just what I love to wear. So both of these watches, I feel, would delight any watch lover and the choice of which to wear would be a function of mood/preference/occasion on a given day. I think, also, that the fact that the Rolex is so atypical of post-war Rolexes gives it a certain cachet that the Patek, with its traditional Patek antecendants, doesn't possess.
I think that the best rolex cellini prince is ref 5440/8... Like a watch movement in gold bar.... 😻👍
Great video, but an obvious winner for me. That 5124G is a really special piece.
Review of the Lange 250.025 please I’m begging
on the 5124, what is the size of the strap at the pin-buckle please? 14mm or 16mm?
16mm
@@rockybui9598 thanks for the reply 🙏🏼 bought the watch end of 2021
I arrived to this review only by some remarkable happen-chance, while watching the ‘Korean bookie’ ( forthehundreth time),I noticed LD’s watch, I thought:”whaaaa...” and looked it up... and after a few click click clicks ,... here I am. Great review. Yes LarryDavid has a nice watch, shocking.
Welcome to the channel! We’re glad you found us!
I would choose Patek Gondolo😍
This glorious Gondolo is winning hands down.
An easy win for the Patek here IMO. I don’t like the fussy tri-colored design of the Rolex’s dial and that half hearted attempt at a display back, nah. And it literally looks like a watch out of the Art-Deco period rather than a homage. Which if it was, would of been a great vintage buy, but it isn’t.
reverso. and it is not even close.
Tim keeps talking up the newer Patek with their Patek seal and silicon hairspring. Ugh, nasty trash. I'd much rather have a non-silicon watch. Older Pateks > Newer Pateks.
only rolex I like
Ewww!
Ugly rolex
As a Doctor my choice is obvious…the Rolex! I’ve never been a big fan of the trilogy. Yes I respect Patek but I have no desire to own one.
