Patek Philippe

Seldom post in the Patek forum, but today I picked up two gorgeous new Pateks.

5205G


I love this watch. The size and layout of the dial are exceptional, and the stylized lugs fit the design very well. I'm usually a sports watch guy, but this will do me good in more formal occasions.

5131J

Unfortunately, this watch came to me sealed. I'd love to wear it, but for now it will reside in my safe, waiting for a special occasion. A long wait for sure, but well worth it.

What can be this special occasion which drive you to let the 5131J in the safe?

With such a watch, I couldn't wait and resist to wear it ...Immediately!



Best,

Nicolas

Usually the Pateks come to me already opened. For some reason I just can't bring myself to cut open the plastic on that one.....just yet. Maybe when the 5131G arrives.=)

They are both so beautiful that I'm hard-pressed to know which would go into a safe.  But knowing me, I could never be away from either of those beauties for too long....

... wear them in good health for a long time... just one thought..
Life IS a special occasion! Wear both watches !!

That way if somehow its got a quirk its on their dime, Be a shame to decide to wear it after warrantty, discover  a problem and have to shell out $$$$

I can fully understand your feelings about not opening the 5131 because it comes sealed.  I have two different pieces that came sealed and I still have not opened them yet.  But you can always take it out of the safe to admire.  Enjoy your new "toys".  I am envious of your World Time.  It is simply gorgeous.  Wear them in good health.  Lucky you . . .

Cheers,  Frrederick

Very nice

Both are beautiful, but a shame for the second one to be in the safe....

Enjoy it...

If I had to choose between those two watches, I would go for the 5205G - in a second.
Regarding watches in plastic, I love to wear my watches and it is a huge part of the fun owning a watch - at least to me.

Call me crazy, but it is just my taste

You could do me a favour, sharing a wristshot of the first one.

May your new beauties only show you the best of time.

that's a gorgeous pair.

Best,

Goh

cheers

being it was not on Goyard! Very nice pieces.

Can wait to get one of those someday myself! Wear both of those beauties well!

On your two new beautiful Pateks.

I too am seriously looking at getting the very same 5205G, and though it is very early days, I would very much appreciate your views and feelings. Perhaps you would be kind enough to PM me your thoughts?

Having just returned, from a two day trip to visit Patek, I had the full pleasure to view and try on virtually the whole collection, which of course included the 5131.

If only I travelled more, then maybe a W/T would be for me.

Please don't leave it sealed for tooooooooooooooooooooooooo long!

Regards

Tony
