Nice, I picked up my first Patek a few months ago, a 5205G. My next I’m hoping will be a 5167a. I can’t wait!

Well step 1 would be to hold (and enjoy) both for a year, which IS the plan

Funny enough leaving the house I'm wearing the Aquanaut more whether just walking the dog or running errands, and at home I wear the Naut more because I'm admiring it, the bracelet, the finishings, the comfort, the dial

Naut is more like "jewelry", the Aqua more utilitarian and discreet

As of today, I am now down to two watches (hopefully lifetime keepers?) as well. Great move

Wow, congrats! Both on cars and watches, I've realized over time less is better and just focus on quality

Looking forward to your incoming - Tiffany dial is super cool and how I internally rationalized my green 5711. I don't really value the Tiffany stamp personally, but same goes for people on the color of a dial, so in this hobby you have to go with what tugs at your heartstrings
