Third time *IS* a charm.......

I bought my first 5110J back in 2006 and I absolutely loved it.

I had three Pateks by 2017 (5110J, 5135R, 5960P) but I sold all three, to fund my freshly started business venture. (No regrets, it was a great decision)

Business was doing great and I was fortunate to buy the 3 PPs back (5135R was replaced with 5135P) between 2022/23.....so I bought the 5110J for the second time.

Had a great opportunity to buy 2nd Gen F.P Journe Rèsonance last year for a steal of a price, so something had to be sacrificed... I sold the 5110J for the second time to raise the funds for the RÉSONANCE. Missed it, but I knew I could replace it later....and FPJ RN was just too good of a deal to miss on.

Today was a great day. Found another beautiful 5110J and hope to have it in my hands by Friday.

As they say, *third time is a charm*.... this one is going to stay for a long... loooooong time 👍🥂 Absolutely LOVE the vintage vibes of this reference....especially in the traditional yellow gold. .

Next on the search radar:

- a vintage Ellipse in yellow gold and blue dial, with a simple removable caseback for my special project. (Most likely 3605, 3848/8 or 3546)
