Take your sweet time...
My wife gifted herself this 2019 Patek 5231J-001. She wanted this for years. Thankfully it came with a men's length Navy strap. My wife quickly ordered her custom strap/stitch color. Take your sweet time Patek in delivering her strap please!

Robert

Apparently your wife has an excellent taste! 👍👌👌
Tell your strap maker not to hurry to make sure it is perfect… and so that you can enjoy the watch in the meantime 😉
Thanks Tony
I wasn’t interested in acquiring another piece for myself. My wife had an insane (well normal compared to we WPS guys) interest in this specific watch so it made sense to go for it. Best, Robert
Your wife has an excellent taste in watches, especailly with the enamel dial !
What color is the strap she ordered ?
She’s going for a specific green with metallic yellow gold thread
She tried many different colors and landed on the green. Best, Robert
Thank you JH!
It’s such a bonus to be able to wear this piece regularly as she awaits Patek to produce her strap. Then the watch will be firmly in her possession! Best, Robert
Dear Robert, it's certainly a bonus for us when our wives share the same passion, at least not forbidding it ;)
Enjoy this beauty often!! Best, Henry
so true, and in the case of my wife's engineering mindset....
she came to know the intricacies of Patek's caliber 240 micro rotor movement to a much much higher degree of detail than me. She figures if she's going to finally own her own watch (non quartz) then she's going to understand exactly how it works.
