New Watch

Happy New year !! Have had my new Patek for about a week now and took a few pics to share. Its nice to have a forum to share our watches because I just dont run across folks that seem to care about watches in everyday life. I personally love to look at other folks pictures.The quality on the Patek is just so nice . I was curious if other Pateks owners or past owners could chime in on how much wear or gentle abuse they put them through. I will be wearing my Rolex for activity type stuff because they are so robust but wanted to know where the line is for Patek. Thanks

I love your watch Keith!

To answer your question: If I owned your Patek, I would only wear it in a padded room without any sunlight or dust.
