Money can't buy everything, especially Love for a watch.

Well said Nico ! Thanks to the Vlad, I am now addicted to this one ! A true keeper ! I just cannot understand now how and why I did need Vlad's help to open my eyes ! I was thinking it would be too big for my wrist ; how wrong I was, it is just perfect ! ... 

Apparently yes but it's not only that...

The Vlad is so efficient that his victims are wiiling and thankfull !

Yesterday's post made me think I should give it some wrist time...

Bon voyage !

but I thought you were going to HK... Or are you going to HK through Marakesh ? This is not the shortest way... LOL

That makes sense ;-)))

Cool shot thanks. This one seems to change so much with different straps too.

I have seen a picture

On Instagram of a similar 5070G with a tan Hermes leather strap it was really nice. Best, Ahmed

I can see an Egyptian banknote

 
 By: beejo : October 24th, 2016-15:11
But you need about 1.5 million notes from that one to get the 5070G Best, Ahmed

I am patient... ;) [nt]

Forgive me if this is inappropriate here on the Patek forum.

I do think GP has a very good opportunity to do us (ok, maybe just me ) a favor by offering a similar looking (and much more affordable) watch like this PP5070. Only if my dream can be realized in this way... I apologize again for raising this up on the P... 

Money cant buyy love but it sure makes my love possible.......

Great watch Nico Julian

He he... True! [nt]

One little change will make this watch perfect for my eyes:

place the tachymeter circle outside the minutes circle.

Maybe, someday...

Very nice watch by all means, getting to appreciate it more and more with time - and a great shot, btw.

Thank you, my friend. [nt]

Superb shot of a wonderful watch.

A true classic, IMO.

Here we agree. [nt]

 
 By: amanico : October 25th, 2016-01:02

yes....but of the last 40 years [nt]

 
 By: Baron - Mr Red : October 27th, 2016-03:18

5004, maybe? [nt]

 
 By: amanico : October 27th, 2016-08:44

yep....

......Split second is an altogether different game. As a simple Chrono, I can't think of a better one for decades. But then....the question was framed in a way that is perhaps misleading in that for decades they never made a simple manual chrono!! I think... 

You have a point... Still, I think some vintage Chronos are still actual.

Look at a 130 Sector Dial...For example. Aesthetically, it is timeless. Now the size is a bit too small. With some extra millimeters, it is a winner. Best, Nicolas

Please elaborate. [nt]

I've seen it again a week ago....

and I think that one of the best ingredient is the bezel. A gorgeous watch and that brings so nice impressions from the past of watchmaking. You have the modern and the tradition. Thanks for the picture Nicolas and offer her a nice strap. The good thing w... 

A good chronograph. An icon of a Patek. :-)
