It was a 40th birthday present.
As I can't exactly dictate to PP when I want it delivered, I took possession almost a year ago. But, out of superstition, I decided to wait until the day that the watch was meant for. It was a bit of torture, but, as everything else, it passed quicker than I expected.
My Grail.
Some dreams do come true. After patiently (and superstisiously) waiting for almost a year to actually wear my grail watch, the time has finally come this weekend. And it happens to be my 1K post!!! Without further ado, here are the photos. It even gets em...

Merci, my friend.
More to come, but I could really use your 'studio' to take better photos.
Well....this must be the best 1.000 post ever?
Congratulations! This might be the most beautiful Patek out there (to me). Guessing this one will get your full attention. Enjoy and please feel free to bore us to death with pictures
As soon as I stop staring at it, I will definitely bore you more.
Thanks for the compliments.
Ufff!!!! Congratulations !
Surely an unachievable dream for many ...wear it in best of health my friend !
I am grateful that I am lucky enough to have managed to acquire this one.
Thank you for the wishes.
Rattrapante, Enamel... winning combo. Huge congratulations, my friend.
Please bring it with you next time we meet. I would love to give it a huge photo session! BRAVO. Nicolas
Really a grail. Huge congratulations that you finnaly have it.
I agree it really is the pinnacle for a Patek. Cheers & congrats. Geross.
5370P is my Grail too.
Taking everything into account, 5370P is #1 in my books. Major congrats! Best Kari
From you, that means a lot.
I figured you would enjoy this one, it is everything you like.
Huge congrats!
What a way to celebrate your 1k! I wish I could get an email from Patek too. cheers fernando
and they have made some superb watches in those decades....
.....to me, this watch is at the top.
Double Congrats!
to getting this holy grail and to enter the 1K club Really cool piece with the black dail. It appears to be also Patek's first smart watch, capable of sending Emails CC
Congratulations +++ for this incredible piece of Art
May I ask you what is hidden on the right part of the 3d photo, in the box? Enjoy and wear it in good health. Thanks for sharing your photos. Best, Patrickh
That is the solid full back to swap for the sapphire crystal.
But, that will not see the light of day, the mechanism is amazing and I can stare at it for hours...
Thanks. Agreed the calibre is a pure Marvel to admire every minutes ;-))
and also when activating the split second. You are very Lucky. Enjoy.
Incredible piece - indeed a grail!
What can I say? Very very difficult to find a more stunning, more sophisticated watch than this beauty! Thanks for showing, enjoy it also a little bit for us... ;-)
Congratulations
A beautiful watch, beautiful executed email dial and most interesting complication (chrono rattrapante) A truly grailwatch for many purists I believe
The dial is stunning.
The depth of black actually makes it real difficult to take a good photograph.
Gotta macro that movement...
Congratulations on such an acquisition! May I request a picture of that solid caseback that came in the box? Thanks! Regards, skyeriding
Hmmm, you will have to wait for that one.
I am a complete idiot when it comes to photography, but I have a few friends who can help.
Congratulations!!
Very warm congrats!! Held this watch in hands in June in Geneva visiting PP. As well: my favorite in PPs collection. Understatement at it's best. Movement is outstanding and the dial is a dream!! Well done!
Boom!
Now that is what I call a watch! Many congratulations, from a very, very envious chap! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy.
The smart watch from PP ;)
Congratulations on both your 1.000 post milestone and your grail! And with the Email, you will at least have some smart watch functionality on your Patek Very, very nice! To many, many more posts and we'll drink a toast or two to your new addition at our ...
Thank you, my dear friend.
I will see you in a few weeks, then we can have those drinks. In the mean time, you can email me on my PP...
Congratulations...
To me this is the best watch in the current collection,Maybe the best watch period Wear it in the best of health. Best, Ahmed
Huge congrats on getting this grail ! A real bonus as this piece...
coincides with your 1,000th post ! Please send more photos and describe more about the feel of the pusher. Now the big question is what watch you seek to celebrate your 2,000th post ? Cheers, Gordon
My seeking is finished.
From now on, only pieces that catch my eye. To me, this is THE one. I will post more, once the first wave of excitement passes.
Best Patek in a decade or more!
I cannot remember a more perfect recent Patek. Great choice. Wear it in good health.
I agree, it is a true PP, and to me it embodies everything they should be.
No other model I have seen in a long time comes even close to this, aside from the minute repeaters, of course. Thank you for the wishes.
Stunning piece!
Congratulations on fulfilling your dream. Enjoy it in good health and for many years to come. All the best, Mike
Best "Email" ever...if that ever comes in my inbox.
Lost of words, OMG, WOW etc....This is the winner of all chronos in my books. Best word I guess is "Congratulations!" Rgds Raymond
Hahaha. Good one.
Thank you, Raymond. It was my favorite email ever. Also, most expensive, after that Nigerian prince email...
But... I thought you would present it to the community with the guessing game! ;-)
I\'m so happy for you my friend! I wish that such a gorgeous piece will keep you company for many years to come.
