Humour?…
This place?…
It’s no laughing matter when members are busy counting the number of zeros in their bank account, and trying to decide how they’re going to spend some of them – as well and hoping the wife doesn’t cotton on, since the watch box wasn’t so full when she last looked.
It’s serious business!

You can't go wrong with a Calatrava. Love mine over other complicated Pateks I own.

I have Patek, Lange and Journe dress watches, but this one gets as much wrist time as any. And with the savings you can get an Aquanaut.

Does the AD pour Diet Coke? Can I wear my tourbillon in the shower? If a minute repeater chimes in the forest can anyone hear it?

Down the sink, I hope – vile stuff!
Fizzy grape juice only, if you please.

Of course you can.
Simply stand in the shower with your arm raised and away from the water.
If a droplet should land on it, ensure your man servant is informed and blots it (never rub) ASA very P.
If it’s your man servant’s day off (what were you thinking?!) then wrap your wrist with clingfilm, ensuring a good seal against the skin either side of the watch.
Again, keep your arm out of the water, and you’ll be golden.

Naturally!
All the little forest creatures will hear it, and if they deem you worthy, they’ll come scampering to your feet and wait patiently for you to make it chime again, and again...

I second ap1's suggestion. The 5227G black dial is a perfect 3 hands dress watch.
