5968 incoming

Ok so I picked it up today as promised, went for orange for a bit of fun, will change to black in a few weeks (yes both came with it).
Sorry for quality of pics, I’m struggling to upload them, I will do others when I get the hang of it 😁

Congrats again, looks great with the orange strap.

I have seen the 5968A with the black strap couple of times but not the orange strap in person. Few people who had seen it in real life told me it looked great with the orange strap.

This is probably the flashiest and brightest Patek I have seen! Really a new generation watch

Congrats! Love the watch!
Orange strap I think is more of an acquired taste.

Beautiful!

Is that your wife with a 7118? How does she like it? Thinking of one for mine for the holidays.

Now that’s a Patek I really like. Perfect size, sporty and can totally change the look of the watch with a strap change. Congrats!!!

Changing times. If you want to stay relevant as a watch company you need to evolve.
