Patek Philippe

innovations continue while balanced with more colorful dials and straps to bring in younger collectors. The average age of Patek collectors is around mid to late 40s. As Cubitus was created with a younger crowd in mind, I see this strategy continuing step...  

one sings most to you ?

For actual daily wear: 1. Calatrava time/date with salmon dial. Lovely, simple, understatedly elegant. 2. Cubitus perpetual calendar. That case looks like it was made for a PC display and I like the louvered dial. For sheer admiration: 1. Fox and Crow. Si... 

luck in gunning for the Nautilus 50th clock !💪

It's a magnificent commemorative model, I really want one. The 5396 also has its own unique charm in this color.

50th anniversary ones are naturally very interesting 👍

you see them in the metal.

a busy and FUN-filled few days 😅

You must have enjoyed trying them all on. I like the 5810 and 5610 equally. Fortunately (or more aptly, unfortunately) for me I will not be in a position to have to decide. I also love 3738 return.

with others on the forum.

The pictures were amazing. I quite liked the linen and hand hammered blue dial. I don't own a PP as such my opinion doesn't matter but to some extent I find it is becoming more and more difficult to separate the brand, the watches and the management from ... 

for your participation!

continue in providing more similar posts !💪

Thank you so much for sharing. I love your view point and photos. Sounds like an amazing time!

you enjoyed the read Gary !

All the best, Jon

I didn’t examine closely all the new releases yet, but so far the Crow & Fox is my absolute favorite. I also consider the new Celestial to be a major release. And I think the small Ellipse could appeal to me quite a bit. The World Time Minute Repeater... 

The Fox & Crow automaton was a very pleasant surprise to me ! I LOVE it !

alarm watch ?

I have mixed feelings about this watch. I like the hobnail case, which comes from the 5326G and can also be found in 5328G and 5226G, but the dimensions (41 x 12.22 mm) aren’t very appealing to me. Also, I have doubts concerning the on/off symbol of the a... 

cut-out at 12 which is not ideal, the color and texture of the dial really pop ! Furthermore, the alarm is somewhat similar to a MR in that there is one hammer. The sound is noticeable but not loud, hence apparently the alarm is meant for mainly for remin... 

this kind of chime is much nicer than traditional alarms. I would really need to see the watch in person to get a full idea of how it feels for me.

duty and honor to update the forum members 😇

I didn’t realize from all the other press I’d seen that the Nautilus Desk Clock was as small as it is; seeing it next to a watch gives great perspective. I’d expected it to be much larger for some reason. In terms of other releases, I still am puzzled a b... 

do you like most ? The 12 cut out is needed to show whether the alarm ⏰ is on. What is a better design for you ?

I am still very much a Nautilus fan, but at the same time it remains a pointless watch for me as it’s unwearable. And these anniversary pieces even more so…destined to be flipped and flipped again and for the most part locked away for value retention or j... 

Good choice 👍 Guess you also like the blue strap ?

Love the 5610 and the Eclipse which look great on your wrist.

photographs! While I personally still don’t like the Cubitus, I think the new release is so far its most attractive version by far. As to your factual statement regarding “average age of Patek collectors”, I wonder whether what/whose data this is based on... 

someone who is in the position to know this fact. 😉

wants the next to be better than the last one !

one is your favorite reference ?

see your wrist shots soon ! 👍

But thanks for your blessing, Gordon.

believe in you ! Best of luck 🤞

So many novelties to like/love, including the fabulous automaton, the ground breaking new Celestial (both in complications and design), daring and beautiful new dial colors (eg the lacquered dial 5270Ps), 5227G salmon, exceptionally sporty and beautiful b...

WOW moment for me in terms of innovation and artistry !

I see you were very well hosted at the Patek booth 😉 A couple of questions, out of curiosity: - After trying on the 50th anniversary pieces, which one is your favorite? - Do you think the desk clock could also be a pocket watch? Cheers!

P and G bracelet being my preference because they pay hommage to the original Nautilus. I would be super happy with either. In terms of dial, I love the one with strap because of the superb diamond hour markers. Strap piece looks modern but I like the fee... 

Based on your feedback, I think we're quite aligned about the 50th anniversary pieces. I've already discussed with my AD about it and I'm afraid that I don't have many chances 😬 Apparently, the most demanded is the P one, so I've put my name down for the ...
