Thanks a lot runie, I appreciate the feedback of a *much* bigger expert on the subject :-) [nt]

5089 greetings from my girlfriend's wrist :-)
We found a few nice pictures of my 5089G-020 on her phone this weekend, of which I didn't even remember the existence... They were taken in Italy over the break. Since the watch looks much better on her wrist than mine, I want to share again the pleasure ...
Fantastic wood marquetry rare handcraft !
The reflections in the water is so realistic! Enjoy this rare bird often! Cheers, Gordon
Thanks a lot Gordon, they indeed crafted the dial so meticulously well that the pleasure to look at it is always the same...
With a magnifying glass you can easily see the slivers of wood of different color that they used to create this beauty. Cheers
:-))))
Even if I confess that I'm (slowly) trying to transmit her this passion, maybe one day she'll decide to buy her first Patek too...
Thanks... :-) A good sign is that she's definitely not shy to wear *any* of my watches, even the huge ones :-))
I must also have her picture with a Panerai somewhere, but for now here's the DeepSea ...
This view on the Geneva Lake an water jet in so beautiful. Happy to see another 5089 from the “Lakeside Scenes” after Runie’s one posted two or three days ago
These timepieces are not watches but work of arts. Superb! Best wishes Alkiro
Thanks Alkiro :-)
Indeed, I just thought that now we have on WPS the -020 and runie's -019, while I believe I've never seen live pictures (anywhere on the web!) of the other two of the series, the -018 (also with the "Jet d'Eau") and the -017... I'm sure they didn't do man...
That would be really cool to see the two others here. I rade that Patek made only 40 of them. I don’t know if it’s right and if it’s 10 for each models or 40 for each models
I would say 10 pieces for each model in my opinion so a total of 40 pieces or 10 sets of 4 watches. Maybe someone here would be able to answer to this question? 🤔 Enjoy yours as it’s a very very rare and sublime Patek. Best wishes Alkiro
Yes, let's hope for some other Purist to (own and) post a picture of the -017 or -018, for some reason I really never saw them anywhere on the net! :-)
I never knew the exact number, though I also heard the total was around 40 for the anniversary 5089G's, and they made quite a few versions. The catalogue I have says "limited edition" for most versions (including the four of this series), while a few it h...
Very nice watch. Beautiful job on that dial, love it.
I'd really appreciate some better quality pics of that beautiful dial. Thanks for sharing. Vte
Thanks a lot, Vte :-)
I believe I have only pics taken with the phone, but the neater one is probably this that I'm enclosing for you below (already included in an earlier post) . Best wishes ...
