Incoming - My first Patek
I’m really excited about finally owning my first Patek: the elusive 5711/1A-010. I had a great experience with my AD who was able to source me one in less than 90 days, after I made a deposit. (I’m sorry guys, he’s only willing to sell this reference to local customers.)

I couldn’t be happier, it was love at first sight. I will post better pics later.

I hope it puts me on the same track and someday I end with a beautiful 1/5 LE like yours.
