èmail incoming

Not exactly the email you were thinking of but nevertheless a special timepiece. The finishing and case sold it for me. The enamel dial is very nice and the dial overall is extremely legible/easy to read the time. When TS says he makes the best watch cases he is right. Oh and don’t forget the beauty of the split second movement. Very nice touch with the lumed leaf hands which can actually be seen in the dark. Cant wait to wear this alot & now just waiting for some new fun straps..

Congratulations. It is an amazing piece.

I look forward to seeing your strap options and don’t forget to post lots of pics in the 5370P photo thread.

To me this is the best modern time only split second chronograph and one of the most beautiful Pateks made within the last decade. Major congrats

Seems to be a fair bit of these popping up...which is great...it's possibly the best watch Patek has ever made IMHO so I hope more and more people get to appreciate and own one.

Congrats!

Do you not see the irony there, especially given that remark?

Am I missing a private joke between you and the OP?

What makes you think I was joking about a quarter of a million dollars worth of watch that is supposed to boast the best case design bar none?
