Thrilled to know others surpass my OCD. I have seen some amazing collections over the years. Thanks for the kind words but my collection is humbled by many just in the NYC area. Unfortunately most are reluctant to share them.

Khalid could not be nicer and he is missed on this forum. Knowledgeable, friendly and loves this hobby.

You should go on "talking watches" with Hodinkee.

I don't believe anything happened to him. He posts on Instagram under patekcollector.

Agreed, I follow him on IG, but it's not the same as being active on a forum. I don't really get why people post watch photos on IG.

Yes I'm not aware of anyone else in the world who has a better collection AND shares it online. Tops.

Epic collection! Thank you for sharing.

Can I ask your thoughts on the 5170? I ask as that's the one PP I'd get... if someone were to ever say "take your pick."

I prefer the size of the 5070 but certainly the 5170 is a great piece. Just a personal preference the wide bezel of the 5070 feels more substantial. Certainly not trying to be critical but just didn't have the wrist presence I like in a chrono.
