Me and Oscar and the 5207.....
It's that time of year again, kiddies...I get to shoot the Barron's Roundtable and Oscar Schafer gets to show me what he bought this year.....
Yup...this year Oscar kicked up a million for a 5207 !!! Now most of you know that Oscar's got all the cool toys that Patek makes, but even he's impressed with this one. He even pulled out his iPad to show me schematics of the movement and quicktime movies of super-secret exploded views that only the real insiders get to look at.....quite a learning experience, I must say!
See y'all next year!
