BEAUTIFUL! Would look great on a NATO (not sure if that is taboo or not).

Congrats on the 5524. After seeing your photos I have asked my AD for a 5524. Very limited supply in the UK and I was told he would get one early next year and he would give it to me.

Martin,

This is another example of a watch that was much maligned when it was released by Patek last year. All the internet arm chair qbs turned out to
Be wrong. The piece is super epic. Congrats again.

Big congrats! I've only had the chance to see one in person when it was still sealed, but even then it impressed me. Enjoy!

Many thanks again everyone. Short strap is on the way so more pictures to come when it fits properly.

It looks perfect on you, even without the short strap

Martin - no more pics - we really dont want to stoke up any interest!!!

Its a terrible watch - looks like a bad IWC - movement too small and it lacks Patek DNA and will be an absolute flop and everyone will lose money - so stay away!!

really wish it had a deployant clasp instead of a tang buckle - every time you take off or put on is a risk of dropping it...
