Hi π All, Recently we had a GTG to celebrate the arrival of a lovely Aquanaut for a PuristSβ wife ! Based on the first photo, please guess how many watches from the
3 boxes ? FYI, I contributed very little again but had the most fun π
Horological passion continues in Hong Kong although allocations remain challenging even for my VIP Patek PuristS friends Wish 2024 Year of the Dragon will provide more horological momen...
nice to see the RG Nautilus line up in one picture
confirms me in purchasing my 5712/1r... otherwise we know now why there is allocation shortage outside HK
The 5712/1R is lovely !
Shortage is not because of HK because most of these VIP PuristS obtained their pieces from ADs outside of HK !
Wow what a gathering!
Definitely some upper echelon VIPs! Makes it seem like everyone should have a case full of aquanaut and nautilus π€£ I've never seen (that I recall) the skeleton dial aquanaut, even the strap is different. Any info on this ?
Just looking again
That patek box with all the nautilus variants looks like it could be from patek collection.. both 40th anv. pieces (love the plt), 2 QP, green 5711. Cool stuff to see
The skeletonized Aquanaut is the owner giving his regular Aquanaut to an
Atelier to have it done this way. Do you like it ?
I like it!
Would need to check it closely π but I'm all for making it unique and fun
Mr Enamel King, Nautilus and Aquanaut King and Queen, save some for the rest of the world....
Don't you get bored by getting the call for, "Wait, another Nautilus or Aquanaut?" The rest of us peasants, who dream to get just 1 or 2, will be very appreciative.
Hi "Clued-In" collector, most of these VIPS get allocations from
overseas ADs and this group represents global citizens π
Thanks and yes, a Patek watch case ! This VVIP collector has
Patek gifts that I have never seen before !
So Gordon I suspect that the wrist modelling many of the watches happens to belong to youπ. As a matter of personal preference, is there any one Nautilus you would enjoy owning and wearing?
Same question, for Aquanaut? And many thanks for sharing watch images of this rather incredible GTG of sport type Pateks!
Sharp eye you have Patekova !
Yours truly was the "wrist model" ! Tough challenge in picking one Nauti watch. I love the vibrant blue dial of 5990R, adore the 5711P 40th for its subtle diamond hour markers, enjoy the heft and thinless of 5740, admire the looks of the 5711 green (and r...
I like those choices. I see somewhat of a theme. White metal, bright blue dials, complicated, not too large, relatively thin and relatively rare. And
and yes, quite attractive and in the case of Terminator, something totally in a lane of its own.
