My first Patek Philippe
Having admired Patek Philippe watches for decades, I have finally been able to purchase my first timepiece from the brand- reference 5205G-13. Bought new in London, a few days before the price increase, I find myself gazing at the lovely, nuanced dial for far too long!
The addition of a matte black alligator deployment strap was the finishing touch I needed to tick my “must have” check boxes. I have registered my interest in a few other pieces and am looking toward to the journey! Have a great weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Beautiful watch, the dial on this really pops and the moon phase is something that I miss since selling my perpetual calendar.
Wear it in good health. |

A wonderful reference....
Wear it in the best of health. You can never gaze at a thing of beauty too long. It is art work on the wrist....
