My favorite Patek Philippe

 
 By: cbb in honor of Chamnong Bhirombhakdi : October 25th, 2019-02:14
I was asked, of all the time pieces I have, which is my favorite? 

To me it’s 7131/175! Not only because of its amazing handicrafts and art works that went into it, nor was it the 1st of the 20 pieces made that was allocated right after the 175th celebration on October 14, 2014, but it was because of the way that I was greatly honored to receive this precious piece.  The occasion reflected the long loving friendships, trust, appreciation and closeness between our families that expanded over the years.  My father was the only one who has met all the 4 generations of The Stern family from Mr. Henry Stern.  Every time I wear this amazing piece, it reminds me that it’s not only just a Patek special  time piece, but the friendship and legacy of the 2 families 💖

So 7131/175 will always always be THE PIECE for me 








Hi cbb, Thanks for this lovely post !!

Wow, what a meaningful story !!

To me, the relationships involved here are 1) between families for generations, and 2) between daughter

Thank you! [nt]

If I may politely say so

your favourite watch is indeed a gem and suits you better than anything else you have worn so far. It is a ladies watch and suits your wrist beautifully. And of course I love the enamel painting on the dial.

Dear cbb, a wonderful story, and a great example...

...of how our passion for watches transcends the objects and allows for building relations and friendships, learning as much about cultures and values as about watches.

Thank you for sharing this story with us, cbb. I hope this beautiful 7131/175 will be on your wrist on many happy days as you continue this journey.

Best,
Daniel

Fantastic 👍🏼

This watch is fantastic, I tried to get on but was way to late. I only got the 7175R for my daughter. I love it because it’s a fantastic enamel piece and a female watch.

My dream would be more female enamel worldtimers as I’m lucky to have three fantastic daughters that I would love for to have the same passion for watches as I have.

Again thanks for sharing, your last picture is just great 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Good luck!

Excellent story.

I agree with the statement above, you should but together a book. Something that honors your father and your families story and parallel it with the Sterns. Maybe throw in some Hawaii 5.0 for good measure 🤔🤗
Maybe you already are working on a book..

I have a nice camera, I could take some photos for you.

I am really thankful for seeing the first picture with Mr Stern beeing in a not so serious mood. Thank you!
