i8 or watch. Which one is cooler?
Both are good for the environment! Patek's watch is selling out. Everybody is calling their jewelry store to say, "I want one" or "put me on the list." And one person even (half jokingly) said, "take my first born or second born as payment!" Even if today's critics are critical of it, it will eventually find a time where fashion and style will favor that watch and it will have its heyday!

I think Patek got exactly what they wanted with their new release. The controversy, conversations and presses, good or bad (relatively) is important. I am very sure the steel and Pt version will sell well with long waitlists. It is very similar to Lange’s...
A clueless collector, well,
with a very, very good taste! I love here especially the Lange 1 25th Anniversary moonphase, but the orher two competitors are also big guns! Bravo, well done!!!
I'm embarassed :)) ...but appreciate your kind comments, Mr Torquise.
Hindsight is always 20/20....now I wish I should have get a few more 25th anniversary models while they were still available to me...anyways, moving on.
Interesting you say that!
My AD actually presented me the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona in Platinum (Ref. M126506-0001) last Friday – but with the standard indices instead of the baguette ones I had originally ordered about a year and a half ago. Somehow there was a mix-up. Now I’m deb...
Have worn this Daytona of a friend...
...it is a really beautiful dial. And yes, very heavy : )
Very nice trio!
The Lange 1 speaks to me more than the two others, but I like the color scheme of the Daytona.
Cheers to you, Doc....I am secretly drooling over your black 126500LN, but I still will resist asking my AD for it.
I think for previous gen 116500LN, the White dial looks better than Black but for this new one, the Black is stunning. Congrats again!
Gorgeous set! Those three would do you well for any occasion.
Will say. I like the direction of this new PP line. And I am looking forward to the release of smaller sizes on straps.
It is a funny cycle, like life...70s/80s funky and loose, baggy pants seems coming back?
Nice to see squarish, rectangular watches in focus now, hopefully because they are typically not as popular. I will not decline if I get the call for 5821/1A but I know it's impossible, so be it.
Three amazing and very different watches.
Great range. Everyone of these is my favorite 😎.

Yes, I am still driving my i8 daily, and the style is still ahead of many cars on the road around my area.
No doubt about the popularity of the new PP. We know the FOMO mentality nowadays. I honestly hope we don't have to beg for watches or other luxury items....funny world.
I don’t know if you are clueless or not.
But one thing is for sure: you have your own style and taste which I appreciate very much. Especially your Daytona in Platinum is world class (and I say this as definitely not an unconditional Daytona fan). All the best Thomas
The respect and appreciation is mutual, dear Thomas.
I am also admiring the wide variety and spectrum of your collection. This is an awesome community of expansive watch "wealth" and I meant not in dollars and cents. The wealth of knowledge and scope is equivalent to encyclopedia. HAGWE Raymond
What a wonderful trio 👌🏻👍🏻
My wrist couldn’t handle the weight of the first but it’s looking special alright 🙌🏻
You sure can handle it K 👍🏻
Couple hundred grams is not heavy than our usual grocery bags 😅
