Very nice, I tried the Rose world time earlier this week, that’s me back on the classics and the salesman cleverly sat us under the world time clock, it’s very detailed and gives a clear indication of the beauty of the watch, it’s a shame you cannot buy the clocks

5167 and 5066? Were they available at the same time?

I've got a 5066 and it's amazing to see the two generations side by side. Personally I prefer the '0' dial, but the '1' strap...

Niiice! Well, i did own the 5110 WT wall clock for a while. Guess my AD liked me. After about three years had to replace the batteries, all good. My Muse / wife loved that wall clock.

Oh, this was years ago before central banks completely and utterly lost their minds into MMT insanity. The ladies model was a sealed safe queen we 'rescued'

It wasn't a ladies model. It was the 'midsize' men's back when PP used to produce them. The 5065 was the 'jumbo' first gen; I'd love to see a 38mm 5165 back on the books.

Brings back memories of buying my first Patek (5167A) in 2014. In retrospect funny. Called govberg, they had it in the case. Asked for 10% off, they agreed. Had it the next day! They weren’t always the evil empire.

I have a good relationship with them. They’ve gotten me several pieces. George Mayer is the best. He put me on to Journe Linesport in the nick of time.
