Recent acquisition- 5270/1R

I acquired this during the global shutdown. Everything else since has received zero wrist time. I always wanted a solid gold Patek Philippe and originally was offered a 5711/1R and subsequently a 5980/1R, but at the end of the day, there was no comparison of the Nautiluses to this and the decision was quite easy for me to make.

Congrats! It looks great on your wrist! I especially like the black day and month wheels on this piece - those little details make all the difference.

You can definitely pull it off. The man makes the watch not the other way around!

I wear my it in everything from a white T-shirt and jeans to a daily business suit. The bracelet makes it more adaptable for casual wear, I think.

One of the best watches ever made IMO. Rick ask many boxes. And I think great value for what you get relative to other watches out there. Congrats and wear in good health.
