After doing a quick google search I found that it was latin for nobleman and it is a form of the name Patrick. You do learn something every day

What took so long for this to happen!

This is such a unique watch that has carved out its own niche, it really is a wonderful compromise between a sports & dress watch.

I was just sitting here trying to decide which watch to pull out of the safe for this week, and after looking at these pics decided to pick the 5167...

Hi,
I'm fairly new to Patek, I've got a 5146j which I bought last June and I've got a 5167 on order which has just arrived. Picking it up at Easter.

One of the many attractions of the 5167 for me was the lume on the arabic numbers. According to my AD the arabics are now enamel (so no lume). Only the batons and hands have lume. Is this correct and when did it change?

News to me, but you might get more answers if you start a seperate thread.
