New Arrival.
Thanks to many of you and especially Puffy for his awesome pictures of this watch - and then Stevo for having his on when I visited Melbourne last week...
That really pushed me over the edge   Of course (as ever) thanks to DSW  The watch is incredible on the wrist - We don't have Patek here in Perth so it took a trip over east to Melbourne for me to realize just how intricate the detail is.  There is something very, very special about this piece - Of course, as my first ever Patek it holds a bigger place in my heart already. Simply thrilled - Some quick pics

Congrats Dalip......it looks superb.
It is such an awesome watch, I'm sure it will bring you enduring pleasure. Looks like you got that strap trimmed up perfectly, how did it go? It really looks like you got a real nice piece. Just looking at the photos its interesting how the bezel seems to take on different colours (blue and grey in your photos). This watch is a classic, enjoy it in good health
