cayenne1200,
What a fortuitous happenstance.
It was meant to be.
Even if you do not keep it into the future sunset, at least you can try it out for real.
This case/dial colour combination is actually very discreet.
One observation, please relax.
Maybe your involuntary body language trying to "hide" the watch actually attracts more attention.
Obviously, people are more focused on your face because the seller trusted what he saw there!
Regards,
MTF
A jump into cold water...
I made a thread about that nice Amagnetic at the Parma fair last Weekend. I didn´t go further due to its size. On the next day I accidentally talked to an Italian collector who showed me his watches that he was considering to sell or trade. All of a sudde...
Congratulations to you!
I will say this.... the Mona Lisa isn’t pretty, but she has “something” special. Congratulations on the 5070g. It’s a Watch that has an amazing pedigree. It takes time to understand it and appreciate it. Good luck with your journey.
Huge congrats!
Great story, thanks for sharing and look forward to reading how this relationship evolves.
I really like the 5070,
the J is my personal favourite due to the mesmerizing colours of the case dial and markers .The piece you got is wonderful and the transaction details are lovely too and this piece was definetly not a safe queen before . congrats
Omg!
An amazing story. I love the humanity that is exposed. That kind of trustworthiness is truly amazing. It is what makes the world and better place and gives us all hope for the future. The watch is stunning. I too am on trial with a cousin of the 5070, the...
CB, I fully agree with on the humanity shown by the owner of the watch (I still regard the seller as the owner as long as the funds did not reach his bank account).
I recommend the 5270 if the size fits you well. I like mine a lot.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I really like the 5270R. I have had it for one month. It’s A beauty. ...
Congratulations and welcome to the club of the 5070
I took me also auite some time to get convinced but now I’m a huge fan. Enjoy in good health.

Trying the 5070 out in real and without time limitations makes it easier. Fortunately I´ve sold a "big" watch shortly before and could easily swap the funds without long thinking.
Thanks for your kind words on my face. I will tell my wife but I fear she won´t agree, lol.
What a wonderful story.
You have made the right decision with this piece. I am sure that over time you will start to wonder why you even had any doubts. Soon those doubts will be distant memories in time, long forgotten. Many congrats! 👍
Congratulations. I hope you end up falling in love with this icon.
And if you don't, ell, at least there is a cool story to tell.
It would be No. 1 on my list ...
... if my wrist were large enough to pull it off, which it’s not. Looks great on you though!
Congratulations
On this wonderful piece. Like all here I love the trust and friendship that our hobby creates and I’m so pleased it all ended well with everyone happy. You will grow to live your 5070 more and more with each day to wear it and in no time at all you will w...
Beautiful catch Cayenne,
Certain Italians are like that, I remember having restarted Milan one friday evening with a 5130P in the wrist. It against part of a handle of figs! Luca, if you read us.
What a gentleman that Italian collector, Respect!
That’s a great story and congratulations. Rgds Raymond
I´m am since long a big fan of Italy and the Italians. Now even more.
Thanks for the congrats.
I know that you´re an addict to the 5070, Nico :-)
And the comments of guys like you brought me to the point of giving this watch a try. So many collectors who have proven their good tast with other PP models can´t be so wrong, lol.
Congrats. I must admit to having the same concerns as you do when I wear mine
It is a large watch ( and I am not a large person) Only saving grace it looks like steel not gold But I think it is a great piece- possibly a little under loved at this moment and it is a good time to get one if you can - 2 for sale on this site I agree w...
Great story and big Congrats with this beautiful PP .
Hope you will love it more over time . If not the like you said you van allways sell it . For now wear it in best of health 🙏🏻🤗
What a story! Congrats and enjoy it!
And take your time to make the final decision 😉 I've never handled a 5070, but would love to see it in person one day. I really like it (from pictures) and the G is my favourite. Btw, very nice picture!
Handling of the 5070 is fun as the case is made in PP top quality. It has got so many details that are undeniable well made.
And you can see all the Details well as the watch is that large, lol.
Huge congrats!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful story! Enjoy the watch in the best of health!
