Patek Philippe

After some saving and waiting, I finally added my first Patek Philippe recently. I have been eyeing a few models for some times but to me a Patek chronograph is something special especially one with a salmon dial. Therefore the 5172G with opaline rose-gil...  

I have been fondling with salmon dials for a long time but still not decided which one to get. Glad that you made up your mind and are so satisfied!!

Likewise I have been looking at salmon dials for awhile but somehow did not meet the one I like till now. I am very satisfied now as this particular shade of salmon really appeals to me.

For me the case shape is really interesting. This and the PC with similar case have been giving me interest in PP as they typically have more subdued case designs vs for example vacheron. Great watch

This is one of the main reason why I wasn’t totally attracted by the previous 5170 and 5070 models. I prefer the more elaborate case design of the 5172G and 5320G.

Gorgeous piece!

The level of details on the case and pusher is incredible too.

I feel it’s a very all rounder watch.

Congratulations!

Did not realise it had a box crystal. Makes it even sweeter!

It has got a very stark contrast, that nakes reading time very easy. Big congrats to such a great watch.

...the lugs are awesome : )

Huge congrats, I recently purchased my first Patek having bought the 5811 at the end of December and have fallen head over heels for the brand (previously only ever owning Rolex). I have already shortlisted this piece and the 5230P World time as my next p... 

That’s a grail for many! Wear yours in great health! Both the 5172G and the 5230P are great watches, hope you add them to your collection soon!

Congratulations 😊

A milestone piece.

Huge congrats on your first Patek. It looks great on your wrist. Enjoy the beauty.

entrance with a salmon chrono ! With its lovely and colorful dial, has your 5172 been attracting much attention ?

Loving the watch so far! Somehow it is also understated in its own way so it doesn’t attract much attention from co-workers and non-WIS.

Simple yet complex, legible and salmon!
