Patek Philippe

Congratulations on your 5131, it's beautiful.

Do have an invite to Geneva for the Nautilus event? The last interview I saw with Thierry he would not confirm there would be a 40th anniversary event (of course we all expect one!) but curious whether this is now confirmed.

I like your worldtime watch.

Its a masterpiece like Rembrandt a van goh of sorts. The cloisone dial really stands out. My admiration. Like you i like worldtime watches. Here's mine to welcome yours. Not a cloisone dial but still a world time Patek that i really like. Cheers Geross. ...

Thank you Geross! I have a 5130 G as well and that was my first world time bought in 2010, which year is yours? Do you know if they made any changes in the city layout during the several years of production? Best. G.

Bought mine in 2013.

having a coveted 5131R ! The enamel map is amazing and having the ice cap IMO is "icing" on the cake. Reasons: The white ice cap adds an additional color and makes the dial even more vibrant, and it makes the map more realistic. Please share more photos o...

Thanks Gordon :)

By: gigi : July 22nd, 2016-07:28

I agree and also I think in this R version they did an excellent job on the layers of blu for the ocean giving a more realistic depth. I\'m not a good photographer and I\'m using a regular iPhone so please bear with me. Regards. G.

Yes G., the blue is mesmerizing with...
