Many thanks, everyone!

As Patek suggests, I look forward to looking after it for the next generation. I think he'll really enjoy it one day, and there's a nice (successful) story attached to it now! 🍻

Thanks!

I did not consider the chin version. IMHO, the chin was more of a distraction, and it took my eye away from the rest of the watch.

Still can't believe you waited a few weeks before cutting the seal, on both my ex PP's I cut it after 30 seconds, you must be much stronger willed than I am….

could we have a movement pic?
