I知 feeling the love.....

Super clear Patek dial, Neptune 5085/1A from 1998-2005.

240 movement, steel and a beauty. Doesn稚 photograph well but in the flesh is stunning and an absolute bargain in the used market.

In photos it always looks very shiny, in the flesh it is just right.
The most comfortable bracelet of any piece I have ever owned.

I have a buddy who bought two of them because he liked them and thought they were a bargain. He's had them for a long time. I think he wears one (occasionally, he also has an ALS platinum Dato and I forget what else) and has one brand new sitting in a safe on the Upper East Side.

Does anyone know if the bracelet can be removed at all? I mean what's the purpose of the lug holes? Isn't it for easy swapping of straps etc.? Anyone has pictures of head and bracelet separate? I would love to see. Much appreciated.
