I recently stumpled upon a blog article about a similar
story comparing 3940 and the 5140 and was very 'shocked' to see it used my photos (posted in this thread) without seeking my prior permission.
The author has since rectified it.
Out of curiosity, I searched the internet and found some of my pictures of my speedy and moser also ended in the similar fate. All of them I posted here in watchprosite.com m
sometimes I wonder perhaps my photography skill isn't too crappy, so they attracted quite a few admirers? or is the purist portal so popular it has becomes a reference site 
so if you like my photos of my watches, you're free to use them so long you drop me an email first.
I'd be more than happy to grant you the permission to use them appropriately.
Really, it's no hassle and I won't bite, and I'm not a professional photographer so I haven't thought about asking a tidy sum from you.
meanwhile still on the lovely Patek Perpetual topic, here's a picture of my 3940G.
Now can you spot the difference between it and the 5140G?
no prize for answering it right.
enjoy your week
Mech.

I bought one of my grail watches this week...*updated* :)
Yes, I copied Tony's subject Simply because I bought the same watch ! I'm recently into white metal and after seeing Tony's latest acquisition, I just got to have one too! Oh yes, 5140 still exhibits those legendary curves as my 3940, ooooooh....no matter...
Congrats, Mech!
What a nice and great pair of PC PP you have! Unbelievable! You made it. I didn't even think to get 2 pcs from the same brand, you did it, and it seems that you did it right! A nice evolution of a Classic. Best, my friend. Nicolas

Yes, taking cue from you Nic and Stephen, craze plat dudes. At least I'm convinced I love PP PC so much to have another! anything is possible in WISDOM. hahaha. Mech.
Really, Mech?
What would be your third PP??? A 5970? Can't wait to see the Triumvira! Best. Nicolas
5970P!
w/o the bling that is! Ok Nic, let me sell everything like my house, car, soul first. I hope I have enough time before PP releases this ultimate Lemania! If I didn't manage to get one eventually it must be PP who released only 2 pieces and they went to yo...
Congratulations, You fooled me, I thought this was the same post...
Congratulations upon your new acquisition of the 5140! Great photos! I hope to see more photos of the watch and the packaging! I'm sure this watch will give you a perpetual amount of enjoyment. Just waiting for both of our new 5140 owners to write reviews...
Superb watch
Hi Mech, Congratulations on getting the extra size. The 5140 is one of these very few and extraordinary examples with the increased watch even better (to some extent and for me) than the already (near) perfect former smaller piece! I unfortunately don't h...

Welcome in the club!
It happens to me quite often. Sometimes from "professional" Bloggers, sometimes from boutique managers, sometimes the brands marketing department ... . If you ask them about they don´t even feel guilty. Never asked for money, but this "free lunch" mentali...
Oliver, your experience is 'shocking' to be
honest. Whatever happens to the basic courtesy? I'm pretty amazed my pix was used in a pretty elaborate article, totally 'professional' sounding, I have the feeling they probably make some money out of writing those stuff. anyway, now that I know the tric...
My body has been itching all over ever since
I embarked on this slippery slope :) I gather you're on par with me? :)
Thanks Patrick, after all these years, Patek
Perpetual Calendar still sticks, it must mean something :) cheers Mech.
Huge congratulations Mech,
A beautiful timepiece and thanks for sharing those very nice pictures. Cheers, Mark
Thanks Mark, the white metal Patek is always
very accommodating when worn on the daily basis. Sometime I feel my YG will tend to catch more attention or feel I might be a little 'overdressed' for many occasions. But the white metal is always 'low profile' working like a 'everyday beater'. Wearing su...
A beauty !
The 3940 and so the 5140 are imho the most emblematic product of Mr Philippe Stern Era. Slim Perpetual Calendar, perfect balance, so much elegance, no other perpetual can directly compare to it imho. Great pair, thanks for sharing Francois
