Patek Philippe

Thanks for this review

 

Tony,

Thanks for this "in-the-field" review - the 5205 is a great watch and along with the 5960 remains in my "watches of interest" this year.  I hope you are able to post more pictures as this remains a difficult piece to get at the moment with wrist shots and close-ups hard to come-by.  All the best!

This is the first review of a watch that I have ever done, so please bear with me, especially if the construction of it , is not quite in sync! As most of the regular members will know, and probably frustrated after, I have been in love with this piece, e...

I also like the wristshot, it gives a good idea on what you mean by it sitting high. Seems to be a great piece. Best Andreas

Wonderful review!

I must confess I have it on my wish list... and having the own feelings of owners are very helpful for me. Thanks! Fr.Xavier

Beautiful watch!

Thanks for the review Tony! Enjoy your 5205. Honestly, the 5140G is a very impressive watch, I don't think that you should've gone for the 5960P instead of the 5140G.

I tried the grey one

Congratulation! I tried the grey on in the dealer yesterday, the reason it looks smaller than a normal 40" is, i guess, the white gold case is a little bigger than other ones, like 5140, with a 5140 on the wirst, it looks bigger than the 5205G I loved the... 

a great writeup

Nomer, I can assure you that I have taken many photos of this piece, unfortunately not all of them are as good as many other members!! Though I shall keep on practising!. Serali, enjoy your 5140 when you get it. This message has been edited by Topcat30093...

a great story!!.. my favorite part was about you had to sell your FP Journe to acquire this Patek... i hold FPJ in very high regard but that just shows the love and respect people have for Patek.. so cheers & congrats!

It is beautiful.....
