Flash and no flash photography. It was a really great day picking this piece up.

It is really amazing in person. Photos really do not do it justice.

There is a problem though, the date wheel is stuck which is of course upsetting as the watch is brand new. I noticed this when I got home. So back to Patek it goes, lets hope this does not take long to fix.

My original title still holds..Incoming, sort of

Great watch! Congrats again.

Sorry to hear about the date wheel issue. I hope (and expect) this will be expedited.

Great watch, and very sorry to hear of the date issue already. Patek will sort it, and you’ll have your 5968 back on the wrist before most people get theirs. I hope Patek throw in some gifts for the inconvenience.
