Amazing !

Dear Roni

I hope I could see once in my life a Gilbert Albert on my wrist, even for a short try. This amazing asymetric design is one of the rare exemple where Patek take risks in its design with a brilliant result !
There are others exemple where Patek took risks or tried to be fashionable and where it ended with not so desirable watches... in the 70s and 80s for example.

Patek chronos are great, Woldtime too (haaa the 2523...), the 2526 is a marvel of classic design, with fantastic craft skills on the movement and the dial, or the ultra rare 2577 too etc etc but these Gilbert Albert are my holy grail among vintage Patek.

I wish you will complete your collection with the 3413, the extra arge bezel makes it for me the most beautiful of all though your triangular is maybe more impressive at first sight.

BTW do you have some pocket Ricochet (789, 788, 798)? It is not so hard to find as the 3413 and they would make sense in your collection.

Thanks for sharing these rare watches I am dreaming of.

Cheers

Francois
