Patek Philippe

These 2 go very well together.

A classy Patek with a very drinkable claret which I’ve just discovered and love the name. “Good ordinary claret”.

What Mike???

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:07

The watch or the wine??? 😜. Thank you. M.

The watch for sure I know

By: Mike H : October 2nd, 2021-23:02

The wine for sure I guess but I rely on you as I don’t know it 😉

You can’t go wrong with the Ordinary! Wonderful Calatrava too btw!

Have to tried it?

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:08

It’s very drinkable. M.

Yes, I’ve had it a few times though not for several years now. 🍷

By: westrop : October 2nd, 2021-11:49

It’s ok isn’t it???

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-12:04

For the price that is. M.

It certainly is. I am no wine snob with very little experience to be fair!

By: westrop : October 2nd, 2021-12:26

Same here. I have absolutely no idea about wine.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-12:46

Just know when I like something and even better when it’s only £12 per bottle. 👍🏼. M.

That's the way to go! This 5196P is such a great Calatrava. Always a pleasure to see and wear it.

Agreed my Friend.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:09

Will you replace yours ?? M.

That's the big question. I would love to. But psychologically, not easy to swallow.

By: amanico : October 2nd, 2021-10:09

Then the B******s have won.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:12

And we can’t have that. You love it. So make it happen and smile every time you put it on your wrist. That way you win. 🙏🏼. M.

I know you are right...

By: amanico : October 2nd, 2021-10:13

Annoyingly I usually am 😜

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:18

Do it my friend. M.

:))))

Both may appear “ordinary” but to the

cognoscenti they are superb ! Well paired Miles !

Thank you Gordon.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-10:31

You are spot on with that description. M.

I saw this piece last week at the salon

By: penfriend : October 2nd, 2021-13:57

And I must say I am really drawn to it. They told me there is no waiting time / list which makes it favorable as well. I also saw the 5320G which is totally different but also very nice. And the 5270P - all available. In the end three very different timep...

I am very surprised that the 5196p is available without a wait.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-14:13

Complete opposite to what my AD told me. 2 years I had to wait here in the UK. Amazing to see these 3 in a tray in an AD available to buy. M.

I even asked how long the wait would be if I take too long to decide on the one 5196p available and they told me 2-3 months. It is the PP salon of Wempe - maybe they have better stocks.

By: penfriend : October 2nd, 2021-14:20

Must have. Even Patek management have a different story here in UK.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-14:22

Grab it while you can. M.

It is the runner-up on the 5088p they ordered for me

By: penfriend : October 2nd, 2021-15:53

If I dislike that one I will go for the 5196p

The wine may be ordinary, but the watch isn't. Enjoy both of them in the beautiful weekend!

By: joenghenry : October 2nd, 2021-14:35

Thanks Joe.

By: Miles_151 : October 2nd, 2021-14:39

Yes not sure what the equivalent wine would be??? M.

Two of life's pleasures in one wonderful picture! Enjoy.

‘Claret’ reminds me of Rumpole.

By: ChristianDK : October 2nd, 2021-15:06

When I looked at your photo and mine I saw that both appeared to have been taken within 5 minutes of each other on Friday afternoon?! And in the UK too, small world!

By: westrop : October 3rd, 2021-08:49

...

Wow. Great minds and all that 😜

By: Miles_151 : October 3rd, 2021-11:40

M.

What a brilliant pair, well chosen 👍
