I've flipped more watches than I care to remember and I finally have my big three, sort of. Can you guess?

The 5711?

Etschell · 23 February 2017, 03:34 AM

The red cloth

beshannon · 23 February 2017, 03:37 AM

You did not show the current NY Times

Zak1 · 23 February 2017, 03:43 AM

You and me both need an Audemars Piguet

Loevhagen · 23 February 2017, 03:48 AM

The JLC is wrong - as it should have been a Reverso - in order for them to spell R-P-R as Rolex Passion Report.

Peterandwatches · 23 February 2017, 04:32 AM

Lol, at the missing AP comment.

That JLC is a beauty.

AK797 · 23 February 2017, 04:34 AM

I think at 45mm that Patek may be a fugazi...

natosub · 23 February 2017, 06:59 AM

No idea...

SWISSAHOLICS · 23 February 2017, 07:03 AM

The towel should be a different color instead?

SLS · 23 February 2017, 07:13 AM

no day on the PP

Lordofrolex · 23 February 2017, 07:25 AM

That's an amazing big 3

SC11 · 23 February 2017, 07:30 AM

Unless it's poor pic quality but there only appears to be part of text on the 5711 dial

fiftywattmafia · 23 February 2017, 07:54 AM

No $hitters to speak of there that's for certain. Looks good to me.

Onikage · 23 February 2017, 07:56 AM

Can't see the pic, that's what.

TickTockChuck · 23 February 2017, 08:21 AM

Image is a bit fuzzy, but appears the PP Nautilus is missing text on dial? Other than that I would have gone with a blue backdrop....Ha!

Tony64 · 23 February 2017, 09:14 AM

We're not talking about a replica/fake are we? If so then .... IBTL

gossbeau · 23 February 2017, 09:32 AM

You have your big 4 not big 3 because that JLC is basically a double watch LOL!!!
Or second guess, you only have a Nautilus from the holy trinity so you miss a VC and an AP???

With a "sterile" dial, doesn't that make it an "homage"? (IBTL

)

brucethemanlee · 23 February 2017, 10:51 AM

and the point of this thread is .....?

Orthoman · 23 February 2017, 12:41 PM

The point of the thread was to try to figure out if there is anything wrong with the picture. There IS and a few of you figured it out pretty quickly.
In no particular order:
1. The 228239 is my grail watch. I love it and wear it as much as possible.
2. Yes, I should have used a blue cloth.
3. Maybe I do need an AP or VC to complete the collection.
4. The JLC is the Reverso Tribute Calendar and is even better in person.
5. I like the reference to the New York Times which was drawn from another thread that I started in jest and was removed quickly.
6. Yes, the 5711 is a flat-out fake. I think I love the watch but wanted to take a "test run" with a replica before getting myself on a long waiting list or pay David SW $31K. The watch isn't a particularly accurate copy but it's beautiful. I know the real McCoy is stunning and I might have to put this one on my list.
Thanks for playing along.

LuminousMaximus · 23 February 2017, 12:57 PM

so if it's not a Patek, Is it a Poop-tek?

ajas · 23 February 2017, 01:03 PM

Photoshop?

Posting a fake/replica is serious business around these parts. If I'm not mistaken, it's grounds for a ban.
