It is.

I also do like that because of the design you can't really be neutral. IMO its like great art. When it creates a response, good or bad it's means its good art. That's what its supposed to do.

Agreed.....so glad I have this one! It’s a wonderful, controversial, beautiful, offering/choice to have from Patek. IMO...it’s a niche Patek needed to be in.

Cheers, cracking lume to say it's a Patek.

I'm looking to change the look of the watch a bit has anybody got any strap recommendations? I'm thinking either blue or a light tan crocodile strap would look good.
