I will collect the orange Ellipse next Wednesday and take a few more pictures. I’ve asked my AD to remove the plastic and send a wrist shot on his wrist. I’m blown away. This is, in my humble opinion, one of the coolest Pateks I’ve seen in while…
Please tell me your opinion about these two pieces: I think it’s a gorgeous idea in this context. An iconic watch created at this time when wallpapers looked like this. And a spirit of freedom and adventure I miss nowadays. Do you like them? Wich is your ...
I would say #2, it is a little more toned down (and more legible too). These are party pieces however, so feel free to choose a model that is loud on the wrist and utterly useless at telling time! As to whether accepting your own second best allocation ch...
if I remember correctly. I asked in Geneva during the Rare Handcrafts exhibition in June. I love them both, have no favourite. Should be available in limited numbers through any AD.
HUGE congrats 🎈🍾🎉🎊 Personally I like the green more because the color scheme matches my clothing style better 😇 On the other hand, the orange🍊dial is bright and vibrant which are important factors for a watch with an enamel dial ! Look forward to your wri...
Good luck with your choice. I definitely prefer the orange strap and the dial design. Firstly I see the ellipse case shape within the dial design which I find attractive. Also, a light grey strap may tone down the look a bit and still work well with the c...
Both, for better or worse, remind me of patterns I associate with other everyday items. As you say, in person is the only test as this might not be so when one sees them in the metal.
I you consider changing straps in the future, for whatever reason like just changing style or wear the watch more discreet. Which one would be your choice? Mine would be the green one. It can handle a blue strap as good as the green one.
While I'd personally not change the orange strap of the -015 (it looks just perfect there -- besides that it's probably the first time I see a Patek come with an alligator of this color! ;-), ref. -016 does indeed lend itself to several nuances of blue as...
With these amazing colors a strap change will change the look of the watch dramatically! I‘ll get mine in September. Please wait a little before I open the box. I am curious for more evaluations and comments… Thanks a lot! Best Tempus
What do you think? Ideas welcome!!! The orange one could be „The Andy Warhol“ Think brauner could be right, a dandy like him would have chosen the orange one. The green-blue could be „The Ummagumma“ Elipse introduced 1968, Pink Floyd released their record...
Please feel free to open a new thread if you would like, where you can post more pictures and your first impressions about this special Patek ;-) Cheers.
Press release didn’t do justice…so different in person!!! Wow! Huge congrats 🎉🍾🎈 Please describe your impressions! And more pics please! 🙏🏻 Best Tempus
