Haven't bought a brand new Patek in ages, but this one had to be done. Picked up the first one in my area.
I just love the fabulous trapezoidal case shape which is also refreshingly small and slim. Powered by that veritably reliable and accurate 215.
Thanks to Guy in France for enlightening me on the 3489 precusor and Gilbert Albert clues.
Apologies for the photos, first timer, and didn't receive the macro lens for my D200 yet.
