Of all the references the 5970 series had the most “commissions”

The ref 5004 closely follows then the 5070. Some are genuinely unique dials but some where made in a very small series. However, to put all this into perspective I predict that only 50-100 pieces were made. Consider approximately 3000 pieces were made, th

In the Antiquorum auction held today in Hong Kong,

the Patek Philippe 5089G with the enamel Rousseau Lion was sold at HK$2,400,000 (excluding buyer's commission). It's a rare one out of 6 pieces made. Congratulations to the winning bidder. My humble Swatch watch next to the image.

I like your enthusiasm, Count!

I personally feel more attracted to the 5078, but I understand the appeal of this new 7047G. And because of the absence of a date window, it is indeed a wonderful variant of the 6007 design. Best, Emmanuel

Was thinking about buying this for my Calatrava, but my local dealer has an OEM sailcloth strap in an off-catalogue color available and I'm tempted. (Used AI to superimpose)

The best repeater since 5078: it is a triumph.

Best 6007 design, too at the same time. Never liked the 6007 A, the 6007 G a lot, but this one is the perfect design. This repeater demonstrates great life style, celebrates lightness and beauty of life. A dream piece on par with a 5078 R.

Not a big fan of the aesthetic. Not to criticize. Amazing movement though.

Not a big fan of this dial design. I'm not criticizing the design. But this design and the Patek 6007 have never been great designs in my eyes... I've always said regarding the 6007, "if they took the Patek Philippe logo off the dial of the 6007, would pe

Thanks so much!

Dear Emmanuel, Thanks so much for such a comprehensive list. I totally agree with you that the right movement to complement my 2509 is shaped caliber 9-90. I'll definitely stay within this movement! I have to say that the 1450 'Top Hat' really speaks to m

NWA: The 5226G. You either love it or hate it.

I fell in love with the 5226G the moment I first set eyes on it in 2022, It was a grail that was always in the back of my mind. I never thought I could get one. That was, until a good opportunity finally arose at last. I haven't come accross many here on

Good morning, Stefano.

Here are some detailed thoughts with photos, links, etc. First, here's how the Pagoda 5500G looks on my wrist: It's a nice watch in itself, but I am not too fond of how it wears. I have dedicated a thread to it here: www.watchprosite.com And another one t
