I have the honor of friendship with the father and son

Of this Instagram account, as well as the pleasure of handling this particular watch.

It is in fact an incredible piece that incorporates the skill of all the different departments 
within Patek. 
To have a commissioned watch from Patek alone is a dream, but to create and influence every facet
of a watch using all the skills at Patrks disposal is amazing. That being said it’s not a guarantee the final
result will be spectacular. But given the experience and wisdom of this father and son team it was a foregone conclusion,
as is evidenced by the watch itself.  It is exquisite.

I wish them and their account every success.

I can't access this post as I'm not on IG, but this is one of the few IG accounts I am familiar with, as the quality of their posts has been really high.

These gentlemen (it's a father and son account) are big lovers of horology, who have been rewarded by Patek with quite a few unique pieces... Thanks for sharing yet another gem of their collection! Cheers.

... the wallet hurts!

Too bad they did not post a pic of the movement... this is an amazing piece and reflect the infinite possibilities offered by 'piece unique' programme. I particularly like the sculpted side of the case (for once, this is treated tastefully!)

Beautiful and classy as hell...

...the only nitpick is the minute hand...could be a tad longer.

It doesn't suit my taste but great story,,,

Darn interesting!
