Another fantastic video from John. Very enjoyable and informative as always. Ref 3796 is just perfect. The 215PS caliber is just at the right size for it, while it became unfortunately too small for the 5196. This is the main reason why I never bought a 5196P despite loving the watch so much. These watches MUST remain as a set, you know it John 😉
a new Collectibility video is always a small delightful break for me, since you coerced me into commenting for the cap, at least let me extend my appreciation. ;)
I'm very much enjoying all your Collectablity videos John. These 3796 watches are beautiful. Also loved the coin watch in the last video. Went to the website and was sad to find it sold. I'd really like one of those if you can find another one.
Really beautiful, classic dress watches. There's nothing better than a perfectly executed dress watch. The white gold salmon dial is definitely my favorite. Great size on these too, those long lugs make them wear much larger. PS I will say I do covet the cap. Its legendary at this point. Must be the golden ratio.
Thank you for your suggestion. We have produced a video about mesh bracelets: th-cam.com/video/UuvR00cisuc/w-d-xo.html , and here is a video about the world's largest Ellipse collection which includes a discussion about Ellipse bracelets th-cam.com/video/54gzrLtaZqA/w-d-xo.html. There is always more to say about Patek Philippe bracelets so we will keep your suggestion top of mind!
People don't realise how well these 31-33mm dress watches wear on your wrist until you try them on. The more content there is about these the more there is people trying and then the circle starts.
Hi John, thanks for great contents. May I ask what brand is the watch suitcase you used in the episode insane $700,000 worth Patek Philippe watch collection on chrono24 channel?
Hi, thanks for sharing this video. I saw that yellow gold with Roman numeral and hobnail bezel was the yellow gold version included in this connection, so it's the 3796j not as desirable or valuable as the rest? Thanks

This is one of two channels where I immediately stop what I am doing to take the few moments to watch with anticipation on what may be learned.
Thank you for your kind comment. We are so pleased that you enjoy the Collectability channel!
Long life to Collectability. I never get enough of looking at these time only Calatravas 😍
Thank you for your kind comment.
The rose gold model breathes classic Patek élégance. Thank you John for sharing this.

So much more to Patek than the hype watches. Good job John and team.

Excellent point regarding the movement/case sizing.

Wonderful video and set! Hope someone picks them all up! Also, I never realized how closely the 3796 was to the 96.
Hi John,
Can we make a video about Patek Bracelets? Especially those from the Ellipse line.
Like their history, application, intricate design .. etc.🙂

Bravo John
Thank you!
What an amazing group of watches, as always the Japanese ahead of the curve
Thank you for your comment.
Amazing reference!
Thank you!
Count me in for another great video and for the hat drawing. Keep up the good work and if you're vintage watch guy, you need to subscribe.!
Thank you for the shout out!
I really want that Ellipse hat!
Good luck!

Thank you for your kind comment and supporting the need to try on a smaller watch -- you're right, they wear very well!
Hi John, thanks for great contents. May I ask what brand is the watch suitcase you used in the episode insane $700,000 worth Patek Philippe watch collection on chrono24 channel?
would love to see some videos with kelli!
Stay tuned 😀
Great video. Very informative. Where do you get the red Patek case?
Hi, thanks for sharing this video. I saw that yellow gold with Roman numeral and hobnail bezel was the yellow gold version included in this connection, so it's the 3796j not as desirable or valuable as the rest? Thanks
Calatrava is life!!
Collectability❤ Patek Philippe ❤ 3796❤
❤ your comment!
Dream watches
Question, not related to this reference: Did some Patek Philippe 5096's come without a sigma dial?
Great question! I have seen some of the 1990s examples with sigma dial and the later ones from the early 2000s without the sigma.
HAT PLEASE!!!!
First comment ❤
That vinyl folder is about as tacky as it gets.

that small size just looks ridiculous compared to modern standards
