I am a believer in some skin tones being better for certain watches. This watch works well with my ruddy skin tone (normally greys and tans work best, blue is not my color).

Trying on 5226

 
 By: Ping.Timeout : May 7th, 2022-10:49
What do you think? My wife and i happened to pass by a local dealer here in Singapore - with no queue in front of the store. We decided to inquire about the 5226 - they did have an exhibition piece hence decided to try it on … and voila. Simply amazing. T...  

Thank you for Fabrizio!

Sometimes a watch just sings to us. To me, that's a big part of what makes this such a special hobby!

Everyone is an individual, with individual nuances, and that's great.

You and I have remarkably similar tastes. I went yesterday, and I am pretty convinced I am going to pull the trigger. I went in wanting to hate it, but left wanting to have it. It is unexpectedly charming. ...  

Looks good on you

I am surprised an in-AD shot actually turned out!

This was a piece I could have purchased yesterday, but...

I recently purchased a 5205G last September, a Bulgari OF last September, an Explorer in December, etc. - I like to put some time in between my purchases, and these were three that I just happened to get allocated (well, except the Bulgari) in one fell sw...

Are you talking about Humbertown Jewellers?

Looks fine on your wrist given its more sporty looks 👀!

I need to see the textured dial in the metal. The dial looks quite unusual in photos.

Thanks so much👍

Please don’t get mad at me. That watch is beyond gorgeous. But I would like it better with no date. I hate to sound like Nico. Lol

Lucky enough to pick one up yesterday and I fully agree that pictures do not do it justice. I really love it. ...

He said he wanted to refocus on Patek’s core dress watch business and not become a Nautilus-centric brand. With several casual Calatravas and stainless steel complications with waitlists, he seems to have accomplished his mission. I love the authentic “pa...

...it was interesting to see it on the case. It seems that with this tone of the dial, it would have made more sense for the case to be J or R. The dial appears warn but the case is cool...

Looks fabulous!!!

That dial always reminds of seeing millions of stars out in space. Very magical! Have you decided to go for it?

Hahaha 👏 well said !

This is an excellent release

Patek has succeeded in freshening up the Calatrava line over the past couple of years, by moving towards a more casual look. This textured dial is quote appealing and finely balanced. It's important that the "entry level" pieces have appeal beyond being m...
