Thank you everyone!
Many regard PP as a milestone watch in a collection, and it certainly is to me. Hope it's just the beginning!

Happy holidays!

By the way you'll love it, I have the SS and I just love it, the RG is incredible also whereas I can't say that I like the WG version, saw it in the flesh and it didn't sing to me. You can change your signature now and add PP to AP and Rolex, very cool trio, I have only PP and Rolex

'Boring' refers to 'yet another incoming thread'... LOL

Arnaud, your 5712/1A is also a strong poison to me

Congrats Wayne on getting your first and very special Patek.

Rose Gold is a favourite material for me with watches and maybe some day I will have a rose gold piece too.

I know you have waited a long time to get this watch and I hope that it lives up to your expectations.

The watch looks stunning in the flesh and I can say that because I was fortunate enough to have dinner with you tonight and hold your watch in my own hands.

Congrats on a special timepiece!!!!

Nice to meet up again, Steve! Always my pleasure to be able to chat with you guys about so many topics that we share common interest in.

Thanks for your kind words on my new watch. RG is a beautiful metal for watches and I hope you get your ideal RG watch soon. I also wish to congratulate you on your new purchase during your visit to Singapore. A nice catch indeed

Stay in touch, and safe travelling, my friend
