Patek Philippe: First Time

I wore the 5107P for the first time outside the house tonight to an office function. What a beautiful, subtle watch. The epitome of class with restraint. Beautiful in the hand, but really great presence on the wrist.

Patek Philippe: Thanks Park..

I know that the watch was sold in 2012, and apparently was sitting in a dealer's safe for a number of years. Perhaps a transitional piece, or special order after the model was officially "retired"?

Patek Philippe: Sorry..

I didn't post a pic of the back. It is a very, very striking watch. I was looking for a 5107 or 5127 in white gold, and stumbled onto this. I've never owned a platinum watch, and certainly never expected to own a platinum Patek, but it was just too tempting to pass up. Really nice weight, very under

Patek Philippe: Patek 5107P Question

New to the forum, and wonder if I could get some information about a 5107P I just got? Does anyone know definitively what years this model was produced? My sense is that it was only available in the 2005-2006 range, but I would appreciate any additional information on that. Also, I was surprised whe

Patek Philippe: 5107 vs. 5127 Question

I'm a newbie to the Patek universe, and wonder if someone would be willing to explain the difference(s) between these two PP's? Also, anyone have any thoughts they would be willing to share on the 5107p? Based upon the pictures I've seen, it looks stunning. It seems to command quite a premium. Is it

Patek Philippe: 5146

I agree with Tony--5146g with slate dial. I thought I wanted the cream dial--it looked better/more classic to me in pictures. When I went to an A.D. and saw both, to my eye there was no comparison. The slate has a very subtle, very beautiful, slightly mysterious look to it that you don't get in pict

Patek Philippe: Viola!

Andrew: I did as you suggested in terms of setting the month first, to the June/28/Sunday setting, while the watch was at 6a.m. I then slowly advanced the hands. VIOLA! The month advanced as it was supposed to. I now assume and hope that things are properly synched going forward. Thank you all very

Patek Philippe: OK, so...

Not to be too thick about this, in order to correct the synch issue I should set the month, day and then date to say June/Sunday/28, while the watch is at the 6a.m. time setting, then slooooowly advance the hands clockwise to the proper month/day/date (today's setting)? Will that do the synching? Th
