Ahhh that makes sense, he loves that watch!

As I said, it's my favorite PP. I love annual calendars, and this one does it without looking silly.

I got a call from Henri Stern just last week saying the extra-padded straps for the 5960p had just come in. You might wanna check with them to see if yours came in yet. Now, I haven't photographed the 5960p on the shiny gator strap, but man, it looks pretty killer. Will post them pictures some day when I get a chance to do so.

When are you going to pull the trigger on the 5070? It's getting closer n closer everytime I see the watch and I have a feeling you've got it already hahaha

I called Tracy on Tuesday--not in yet. I think I am a week behind you. I went with the flat black though. It will look amazing!! As for 5070--I am getting closer--price has to be right. I have a 5070G on the way in any day--will see if I am going to get it or not--BNIB--Sealed etc. as always!! Congrats on your new purchase! Very nice duo!!

Congratulations on your lovely new (to you) 5146G I had the same model, but with the cream dial.

Now I find myself in the fortunate position of choosing between Patek's two new AC's the 5726A and the 5205G (dark dial)

Let's post them 5960p on the shiny/matte blk duo when you get yours on!!! haha. Btw, chris sent me both pieces with the v shape buckle. Calatrava buckle was costly by itself but I could'nt say no after richard presented it to me with it installed already. 5070g's gotta be an amazing piece to put on the wrist :) hope it comes your way very soon! and thanks again Ken, you're the best

Nice Tony, I like the 5205g. 5726A looks nice too but for me 5205g does it even better. Either way, please share some pictures of the new acq. when you get a chance. I'm sure it's stunning cheers mate

You guys think a platinum version, preowned, at 33k is worth the shot? LOL.

Congratulations, Elliott! One of my favorite watches in the world. It dresses up or down so perfectly, and is finished so beautifully. Enjoy it for many years to come!

Congratulations, my favourite, too. I wondered about the cream dial, which looks great, but went for the slate, like you.

I don't like these posts!
They make me think more and more of selling quite a few pieces
to get a 5960P!

Do they have a buckle available or only the deployant clasp? I have yet to find a deployant that is comfortable on a small wrist (6.8 in)

Congrats on a STUNNING timepiece! Please wear it! Too many people let beautiful pieces like that collect dust, thats like having a Ferrari as a city driver.
