Another Blue Face Patek Arrives

I have a real problem with Patek Blue dials. I have had this one on my radar since visiting Geneva over two years ago and tried on the Black face. When the blue face option surfaced, I knew I was done. My thanks to Govberg Jewelers, Danny and of course George Mayer! We have had quite the ride!!

Looks nice on you. I was literally chatting with someone about this yesterday...they were telling me how the blue dial makes it more fun

I may be the odd one out but i actually prefer the black dial for the reference. Not sure why but it works very well with black. I think it has to do with the size of the case and making it a black dial gives it the visual appeal being 1-2mm smaller making it perfect. The blue dial is ofcourse great nevertheless.
