And for the PM models

I’ve got an an awesome AD who really do care about a those with a passion for watches. Bought my first piece from them in 2007 when I should have been using my resources on other things!

Acquired the 5164 in 2018 and then after an event last year ordered the three others and they turned up in last 18 months. The 5212 was the big surprise - I didn’t like the press pictures. My AD said just wait until you see it! Sure enough at a Patek dinner as soon as I saw it that was it for the 5212 and when my wife saw the 5067 with that colour scheme she had to have one!

Going back to the PM pieces - the 5109 was the first Patek I loved back in about 2003 and 5296 was my first Patek as Calatrava felt the right piece to start with back in the day. Truth be told I really hope both work their way into my collection someday soon. 5396 with the sector dial in my opinion is an underrated beauty.
