Pre-Basel 2008 - Louis Erard 1931 Classic Moon Phase, A Lesson In Refinement
In a world of increasingly complicated and cluttered watch dials this new offering from Louis Erard takes a far more modest approach, with anything but modest results! Classic, unpretentious, reliable: the 1931 collection is dressed in its most beautiful finery in this chocolate-toned moon phase version. One look at its simple yet very delicate design and you will fall under its seductive spell. This timepiece doesn't so much ask for attention as command it, with its subtle features combining seamlessly into a brazen, and yet at the same time refined, statement of style.This watch will certainly not suit all comers yet this only serves to add to its allure.

Man is the 5960 a beauty!!
I don't know why but pictures of the 5960 never quite caught my attention at all.In the flesh it was a different case.I don't know how else to explain it, but it is just such a cool watch! Being mostly dressed in casuals, I find this is one of few options out there with Patek for a casual watch with complications (excluding the Nautilus/Aquanaut line).Went back again after I had left to try it on, simply because it is hard to come by in the flesh, I wanted to see it again, and I was in Frankfurt just for the day.Definitely a possibility for one to come in the future.Would love your feedback, and also other options for complicated Pateks that in your opinion work well with casuals. Thanks everybody!
