Some incredible watches. I love the dial on the last Patek. Would also love to see the movements on some of these.

this is the 5339
and the 3939 the 10 days tourbillon... I have a pic but not very good and the skymoon tourbillon has a second dial on the back so you can't see the movement

Awesome group for sure. It would be a privledge to own any one of these, although I would prefer to own either the ALS or one of the Pateks if I had a choice.

Of the pics you posted, I really only like the IWC Grande Complication and the Patek SkyMoon. But then I'm into grand complications much more so than simple dials.
