First I would like to thank Jacques Degreef otherwise I could not share those pics. It was the first time in my life I saw a Patek 10 days tourbillon. This was already a good feeling. I can't describe how it felt when I was allowed to 'play' with it between 10.00 and 11.30 this morning.

Those pics are the best I could do but believe me, this watch gives you shivers.

I could always sell my house and buy this watch but I have a strange feeling my girlfriend would not like the idea LOL
So I better stop dreaming. Such a piece will always be out of my league.
BUT, if you really like the looks and want something similar (without the 10 days power reserve and ofcourse without the tourbillon) you can always try the 5124.
At the fraction of the price you get a very good looking dress watch.
