Great question Jay!

I have always liked the Fifty Fathoms because of the sexy convex sapphire bezel. In the past, those 45mm FF and the smaller 42mm FF are all too big for my tiny wrist. Once in a while, Blancpain released the utterly irresistible 40mm limited editions, but

These appear to be in the ballpark of secondary market prices.

Many sites inflate the price by at least 10-15% giving them a margin to negotiate. And when it comes to patek, unless it’s a nautilus or aquanaut, or a reference that was undervalued like a 3940 or 3970, prices are fairly flat. For example, I’ve been foll

My first Patek: the underrated 5134G Travel Time.

I had been searching for a travel watch for a while, and a Patek wasn’t in my consideration set. I looked into a PF Tonda GMT, but was concerned the design would be too bland after a while. I also considered a VC Dual Time, but the proportions were just t

Hype is not bad.

I’m not against hype, but I’m not particularly for it either—it doesn’t matter that much to me. That said, I do think it’s generally a positive thing, because it likely attracts a lot of new customers. People might initially be drawn in by so-called hype

Dual time Aquanaut!

But frankly I'm happy with my single-time Aquanaut. This is all the modern steel sport Patek I need:

Annual Calendar Reguator 5235G: an undervalued gem?

Let me be frank: I’m not a huge fan of Patek Philippe in general. (Ducks a barrage of rotten fruit.) Before you start flaming, let me tell you that I enjoy the level of finishing Patek applies to its higher end products and appreciate the quality of the b

Super helpful.

Thank you for your response. It is super helpful. Though if I am not mistaken, A99 is some shade of Black alligator with square scales rather than dark brown. Also is the code of strap also for Calatrava Travel Time 5134G?

If it wasn’t limited it wouldn’t be hyped

I’m missing the whole thing about this watch as for me the dial is simply tasteless. It’s not even open worked but only a technical joke. I’ve got the 5164G and that is an organically shaped timepiece without any flaws on the dial. Each to their own but w

I can understand why of course!

Exploring in depth the Advanced Research collection has been very interesting for me and a great pleasure: www.watchprosite.com But I personally don’t like open dials, so this one isn’t for me. The 5167R sings to me much more. But it’s a matter of
