Many congratulations on a beautiful watch.

Straps on the Dato are 20/18, would assume 1815 is the same?

Patek strap for the 5172 is 20/16.

Really beautiful and thoughtfully curated collection. Congrats!

Which ones do you find yourself wearing the most? What are your top three daily wearers?

Truthfully I wear all except the 5146 about equally. If I had to pick three dailies they’d be the 5711, 5167 and 116519LN.

Congratulations! It's hard to argue against the 1815 being the finest chronograph ever made and I prefer it to the Datograph due to it being thinner and not having a date. I think you picked the most versatile one ever made and it looks great on a variety of straps. (That suede blue strap with white stitching looks great!) Your collection is also most impressive. Wear them all in good health.

Congratulations on an amazing acquisition. I tried it on 2 weeks ago at boutique and couldn't contain my excitement. I liked how it was thinner than typical chronos and no need to worry about the date since its a manual movement. I love the PP new 5172 blue strap pairing. What a great lineup.

Stunning! Love how the strap complements the blued hands. With a such a gorgeous movement, I’d be tempted to wear it with the movement facing up!
