Thank you all for your kind words!

I guess for me the experience of owning a PP is like no other. I've had my share of other brands but their novelty wears off. The Nautilus just keeps growing on you.

Now I am starting to save for the Nauti Annual Calendar...

Here you go! Notice how the 5170 is the smaller watch but larger movement - love that - but the dial on the 5070p and overall look is stunning

An one more of the 5170...

This reference doesn't seem to get much love but after a ten year absence from the Patek family I am happy to be back with a 5066A which fits my wrist and lifestyle nicely.

You're nuts! It's beautiful and rightly proportioned... your wrist just looks unusually large.

Heck, if it says Patek on the dial, I'll wear a 34mm. If it's free, I'll rock it all the way down to 32mm with a big smile! :)
