Well old friend....
When we started....we were young.....
Where you been?
The 5050 is killer. Is that a RG Dato? Did you sell the Pisa?
5050 / 5970 / PLM would make a killer collection.
It is also hard to like the new watches when you could have bought two old ones for the price of a 5140 
. Makes those 50K perpetual calendars look cheap!
Hope all is well.
Best,

I realise it's hard to like the new watches...
maybe I'm seriously aging. My likings stay with the older models. Not just Patek, even Lange too. *CL...
Well...I think we all at least have a beautiful journey....
while aging . Another image of this old watch that sings right to me *CL...
Ironically no nobody loved it when it was new
It remained unsold and unloved in the 1990's Then when they discontinued it and it was A rarity it became famous Just like the 5020 I always loved it though......... Best Imran
I too Am in agreement
Plus there are better value with these older pieces. But, as much as I love the 5050 Romans the new 5940 is also a beauty. I was meeting my banker and friend today who is also a watch nut and we all are looking at the older pieces. The good news is we can...
Patek 5050
ooohhh....just love the Romans ! What is the dial size please of this classic beauty and where can I get one ?
Sorry...I forgot the dial size.
I think it is 35.5mm.....wear bigger than the size though. Fit perfectly on my wrist. It's the kind of watch that makes your heart a fussy feeling Where to get? I have no clue, it's hard to come by with good provenance and complete box, winder, case back ...
You're not alone CL
I'm old and I like older models, look what I got recently!! I like your watches posted, especially the 5050, I just don't have the dough to do a 5050p I so much wanted, so I guess you're right, we're getting old Mech.

I started late...
working hard when young to make vitamin M to get all these, now age catch up and realise they are not all worth it ;-P We only need one or 2 for memories, not for time. Hope you are well. *CL
Big dilemma
I completely agree with you. I love the past and live in the past not just with material things but my mentality as well. The big problem/dilemma I have you also maybe sometimes are confronted with aswell: To realise that once these models you have on you...
Thank you CL
You have reminded me to rotate my 5059 back onto my wrist! This combination of your 5050 is superb. You have an incredible collection which I would love to see! Happy Watching, justindependent
Hi CL long time since we last heard from you.....
Your two pieces are certainly classics............will time past when it will be said :They don't make them like that any more" Your 5050 is stunning and though not a fan of roman numerals, will make a exception in this case Regards Tony
I'm just like you
I normally prefer discontinued watches, while the new releases typically fail to move me. My idea of a serious watch is a watch that i will still love in 10, 20, 30, etc. years. In this line of work, the Datograph is, for me as well, at the very top of th...
