Look who is back in my collection :-)))

Hey there guys,,

Hope you are all well..

As some of you may know I had to part with beloved 5712 and 5980R plus cash to fund my 5131R, but always felt I would one day get back the 5712 as for me its my favorite steel Patek and the most comfortable watch of all the pieces I owned..
Late last year the plan to get it back was born and decided to get it with a little small extra detail.

Many thanks to my friend in Tiffany in NY for making this happen and also having certificate dated with my Birthday also :-)))) .

Hope you enjoy the snaps..

Dial layout is 'interesting'.
Why would PP install a PR meter on a watch that would need to be wound every day if not worn?
