Perpetually Patek (an incoming)

Just wanted to share something that finally found its way into my wrist.

Ref. 5040J

Really like the size and dial layout of this old bird. Been wanting a Patek perpetual for SO long and glad to finally fulfill that wish!

Any other perpetuals on the wrist today out there?

A very under-rated Patek perpetual calendar, but a true gem

Absolutely fantastic choice.
