Patek Philippe

display only and not for sale 😔 , but hey, at least I got to see, inspect and put on my wrist(s) ! 😃 The dial texture is very interesting ! The travel time annual calendar is also very lovely with the Clous de Paris on the sides of the case. 👍 Both are ha...  

surprisingly even at 40mm, it fitted me well. I blame the lugs for that!

Studied them both closely. Day date is my pick . I love it .

allocation ? 😃

blames 😉

Someone is always guilty But I have tried on 39mm Pateks that have worn too large so it was a pleasant surprise that the 5226G fitted me well. Hopefully mine will arrive later this year - hopefully!

these days I will only believe that I have been allocated a watch when the AD informs me that it has arrived.

Awaiting your good news !

Personally, though, I think the clous de paris on the case flanks is out of place. These really aren’t meant to be dress watches in the formal sense imho

have Clous de Paris on a non-sports watch. For example, 5531 also has the similar pattern. ...

Please share wrist shots and owner’s review when ready !

But the list is probably not so quick. I need to get A, B and C first + the unexpected D and E eventually 😂 If you’re looking for a good review go to

…But I feel like I’d struggle with seeing the text for the month/day indicator

eyes 👀 agree with you. The dial layout is clean, irrespective of legibility of information 🤣

First of all, it's the dial. I haven't seen in person, but in pics, the dial doesn't look sophisticated. It looks clunky chunky to me. Thanks for sharing, but the whole design package to me seems very plain and ordinary. Actually, the clous de Paris side ... 

If you get a chance, please view the dial in the metal and then share your thoughts again.

I guess like in your case, I will have to see "samples" instead real ones. I wonder which of the 2 I prefer. I plan to go a PP dealers on Friday. I will let you know if I find any to see.
