Wise choice on your pick up and not wasting time.....

Can't believe Fat Ninja help on the Aquarius..... Oh, I meant "Aquanaut".... I thought he a naughty man not a aquarius man.....

John-san I saw that in BH. Won't be able to make it since I have a conference that weekend already lined up. Should be a blast with some big players joining. You'll be there sporting the new Patek. Nice! Enjoy in good health.

Thanks, Mr. Brabus. Obese Ninja is very nice, not naughty at all.

Yeah, I'm digging the stealth mode, not like a Rolex at all.

Thanks, and I appreciate the appraisal. Although I'm not sure anyone will recognize the brand.

First of all... Congrats on a new piece! And everyone on here has supported the grey market unless they're completely new to the game.

Second of all... We can always count on a Fat Ninja.

andyol1966 · 8 October 2019, 05:30 PM

Great pick up. Such an understated, cool watch. Possibly the best all rounder!

pblondon · 8 October 2019, 06:13 PM

Congrat, welcome to the club!

Rushne · 8 October 2019, 07:30 PM

Congratulations!
Wear it in the best of health.
I am sure you will love it for many year to come. It is so comfortable and versatile! Enjoy!

KWSub · 8 October 2019, 10:33 PM

Congratulations, John! My 5167 is definitely the watch I wear most often. It’s insanely comfortable, and as Neil said, a lot classier up close. It looks even better in person than in pics. Nice pick up!

locutus49 · 8 October 2019, 10:52 PM

Thanks to all. I really appreciate the comments.

Yeah, the wife also thought the 5711 looked like a 1970's TV screen. She has a flair for snide comments.

Congratulations and good on you for not waiting. Wear it in the best of health

JorgeCCW · 9 October 2019, 05:25 AM

Congrats John. I think it was a great choice. I had 5464, and came to the conclusion that 5167 is the best bet for an aquanaut. With 5524 is a little harder the decison but since its too big on your wrist; then Its like you didn't had a choice you HAVE TO go 5167 , Mandatory!

Congrats and enjoy it

Much thanks, Jorge. The 5524G was the wife's first choice, and the dealer said it looked fine, but it felt like a hockey puck on my feeble wrist. So, yeah, I was left with the 5167.

JUSTROLEXES · 9 October 2019, 08:05 AM

Congrats John

and it looks great on you my friend, enjoy it and wear it in good health

Flex368 · 9 October 2019, 04:59 PM

Congrats, John. The 5167 is perfect for daily wear, love mine.

mimariani · 9 October 2019, 07:07 PM

Congrats, that’s a grail watch for sure!! Way to buy it when you did....we only live once!
