I like how you think.

Congratulations! How are you liking it compared to your Nautilus? My grail is the 5726 but I have a strong possibility of getting the green cubitis this year. Those are my top 2 but I am new to the patek brand.

Congratulations, it's a real Patek and beautifully executed. Patek history is full of releases that didn't win an unanimous support at first. Your version and especially the mechanical features, several instantaneous jumps, are rare, especially done in a way it doesn't jeopardize its timekeeping. Most people don't even realize what is behind a 5930, a 31-260, the 29-535, their spiral, the additional thinness and I don't even talk about the MRs, etc... That's why a watch should always be seen in the metal to be legitimate to judge. Some unhappy people don't want others to be happy. That's forum life.

Wear it in the best of health and thanks for sharing!

They are very different but in the best possible way. I enjoy ‘em both for very different reasons.

Good luck in your journey.

This is excellent perspective. Yes to constructive criticism, no to negativity.

If only there could be an automatic reply on the forum to unnecessarily negative posts with the text "Some unhappy people don't want others to be happy".

I may be crazy but with my 7.25-7.5 inch wrist I kinda prefer the cubitis to the Nautilus. When the 5711 came and went with the green dial I never bought the I would get I. I was surprised when the cubitis was released with the same green dial.

I think the platinum looks great on you. The more I see it the more I like it. I just want my first patek to have a full bracelet on it.

Looks great! I do like the new box and definitely a different perspective. My dealer was saying the platinum is made in limited number as it’s extremely difficult to work with. Enjoy in good health and wealth.
