so this just happened..
Went to my AD to pick up a 5167 they just received, but walked out getting a 5146.
It kind of just sang to me, but the wife is going to kill me. Was this a good decision? |

Probably my favourite annual calendar. Love that slate grey dial. Definitely worth any potential time in the doghouse.
 Congrats!

Congrats, it's a great watch! Just ignore the posts about how fabulous the 5167 is.
We all need a next one, and the 5167 can be your next one! |

Congrats ! I know the feeling, we are totally misunderstood sometimes but I hope that she can get over that in no time.
 Awesome watch, I know I had it before

Hold on, these things don't just happen:)
More details? It smiled at you from the corner of the case while the sales person went to retrieve your 5167? Congrats looks great ! |

Right after writing this post my wife came down and berated me for her iPhone charger disappearing. I didn't take it, one of the kids probably did, but it's my fault anyway...

Has your wife killed anyone else before? If shes experienced in that field then it may have been a REALLY bad idea
Stunning Patek man congratulations.

Congrats! First step......figure out how to set the correct day, month and date! You have a winner there.....good luck with the wifey.....perhaps she needs an Aquanaut Luce to calm her nerves.

thanks everyone!!
the guy that always helps me at this AD was with another customer, so i had time to ogle at the watches and eventually try some on. first it was the 5270 (not in the budget, but always fun to try), then 5205, then 5146, then 5167, then back to 5146, then i didn't want to take it off. the slate gray dial was just too gorgeous; i had to have it in my life. the original plan was to pick up the 5167, then a VC traditionelle as a x-mas present, but i went with the less is more approach. i did come up with a few excuses to tell the wifey, we'll see how that goes. =) |
