The real question is did you actually buy it from T&C?

Very nice, I think T works nicely on the plainer 5167 and 5711 dials.

Thanks everyone!!
I bought my first watch since high school graduation (1988) February this year. It was/is a Rolex GMT Master 2. I wear it daily and love it. I got lucky and was able to find/buy a new white 5711 a few months ago. I really like it, but have only worn it out once. I REALLY lucked into being able to get this 5167. My intention for both Pateks was to enjoy them on special occasions and hope they hold (or increase) their value over time... As soon as I put the 5167 on, I wanted it to be my daily wear!

Since everyone seems to go with the rubber strap, I decided to order one at a few days ago just before i got the word it was coming in. Honestly, I'm a bracelet guy. For me, I can't imagine liking the strap more, but I'll find out! Having to buy everything sight unseen, makes it hard to know what you will like best. I know I am probably in the minority, but right now (having not seen the other options in person), I prefer the bracelet on the 5167 AND the white dial on the 5711... |

Having just got the 5167 and 5711 at the same time I must admit im loving the 5167 on the rubber. You literally cannot feel the watch is on your wrist!
Will be interesting to hear your views once you swap over!!! |

Beautiful watch, congrats!
If you get tired of the rubberstrap, I'll gladly take it off your hands :) |

Thanks for all the compliments!

Does that mean you have the bracelet or just need a replacement? What is the correct tool to swap it out (I have the Bergeon 7825 for my GMT to put it on a strap, but never have...)? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |
