This is an easy one for me, and it's my latest Patek acquisition, last summer. One of the rare handcraft dials they produced in 2018, broadly named "Cinque Terre"...

...did in fact represent Boccadasse, my favorite neighborhood in my hometown of Genova, where I still spend countless nights with friends and a cocktail every summer.
So needless to say, I wanted this Patek quite badly, and my dream miraculously came true.
I believe it was actually one of the first Pateks of the 2018 collection (regular and special) to be delivered in Italy. I still recall that it arrived the evening of June 28, precisely one day before a nice Patek party (with a different AD) in the area, where I could personally thank the Italian bosses.
Here are two pictures of this 5177G beauty and the location on its dial: This year they even had snow in Boccadasse, a pretty unique occurrence, so maybe I'll try to ask for a second personalized dial with snow when I go back in summer...
Enjoy!
