5524 - 154 = ??

My AD called and said I should come in for a visit.... the long awaited addition had arrived...

The quality of Patek never ceases to amaze me... and this is only the instruction book...



Sealed and waiting.....







What better watch to wear for the pick up of the 5370p than the other major release from the Patek 2015 collection... here it is with my 5524g



As many on here have said previously the 5370p is one of the best from Patek. It has all the classic elements that make the brand so special. Looking forward to a lifetime with this piece.

It’s a Patek band that I ordered from my AD. I got tired of the original band on the 5524g scratching and was never a big fan of the pin buckle (but I did like the colour of the original band)

Changed it to a white gold Patek deployment clasp which then opened up a whole world of Patek band compatability. This was a similar shade from the original band, also have a dark blue patek alligator band that I swap out now and then, matches the face of the watch nicely.

Here’s a better picture of the current band:



And a pic of it on the blue alligator band (excuse the beater rolex in the pic.... ;-)
