i cannot relate to the 'too much empty dial space' comment. it is a watch with only one complication (date) and it has the sweeping second hand, which takes care of movement on the dial. i think it is a great watch (disclaimer: i own one) and close to my
I wend to my patek AD and tried a 5147 WG with diamonds. I was pleasantly surprised that it loooked really cool. It had a dark blue almost blue black dial and a nice blue croc leather strap. the diamonds were small and placed around the casing. It did not
I see a lot of YG an RG in auction. Just wondered whether WG fetches that kind of price. I like to RG 6000R calatrava for its simplicity and appeal. Love the 5147 WG for its finishing and the fact that it is an annual calendar. Comments please. I also saw

Thanks for your reply. The AD just told me that the stainless steel 5960 is not hugely popular and not selling much here in Singapore. He suggested I go for the more classical ones. I really like the 5147 but not sure if it looks too feminine.
After many years of deliberation, I am finally thinking of buying patek philippe as a 41st Birthday present for myself. I have narrowed it to 4 choices. To be honest 3 choices (see last pic). Please advice me as to which one I should go for and why. Any A
So I was in Washington DC this weekend and had an opportunity to try on several Patek\'s. Some things I came away with... I was surprised at how small the 5147 looked on my wrist. Personally, It felt and looked dressier than the 5227, but I\'m sure this i
