I own 2 Rolex watches and 0 patek watches so, I would get the Patek... But, that is me.  While I love Rolex, Patek has the reputation of being the finest watch manufacturer in the world. That said and assuming the price point is similar, which do you like better and which would get the most wrist time?  Unlike many collectors, most of us here wear our collection, I know I do so for me collecting gives me the pleasure of wearing fun, interesting and sometimes valuable time pieces. If you intend to wear the watch, get what you like best. If it is for investment, perhaps the Patek will end up the most valuable down the road since most Rolex products tend to hold their value, not increase in value.
