I have the enamel-dialed twin of the 5119, the 5116G. I think you would have to be pretty negligent to break this watch by over-winding. The inclusion of the small seconds hand provides exquisite balance to the dial and in my opinion blows the 5120...
Here is a fun weekend piece I recently aquired...... Pics are from last weekend, but I am wearing it today as spring is finally starting to pop where I live. HAGWE to all. Can't wait to hear the news from Basel next week! Steve
Thanks for the helpful comments. While not an application piece, it was introduced a year ago at Basel and I'm still waiting to see one in the metal! This watch passion can be trying on the patience - for now I just live vicariously through the...
I am very, very anxious to see 5170 in the metal because I'm sold on the pictures, but my AD has not acquired one yet. 5070 definitely seems to be the favorite, but it didn't work for me. Thanks for the nice pics!Steve
I really was looking forward to the 5140P coming out. I sold a 5070P because I just couldn't fall for the overall design of that reference, but I missed that gorgeous blue dial! I thought the 5140 with blue dial would be the perfect answer. When I...
for the price of a 5078 it should be able to send and receive e-mail, text messages and surf the web!
Beautiful watch, Ranier. If it ever comes out in rose gold and enamel dial I'll be having a liquidation sale!

What a first-class combination (cake and watch)! I turned 50 a couple months ago but didn't have the magical two extra integers to celebrate. Ring in the second half of your millenium in good health and gratitude. That is one beautiful watch. Steve
that there has to be a recognition of diminished value if papers are missing. Regardless of actual importance the reality is you are eliminating a significant portion of the pool of potential buyers should you ever want to sell the piece down the...
and it came in a week!! I couldn't believe it. I would imagine that there is a lot of variability here depending on where you are and how the supply/demand dynamic is behaving at the time. Best of luck to you - it is a piece worth the wait!! Steve
I have done this a couple of times. I just register the watch on the Patek website. I have never received any correspondence back about the watch already being registered nor have I been asked to prove that I am in posession of the watch I'm...
