Incoming!!!!!! My 2nd Patek !!!!

Thanks to all the enablers and eyeing this watch on TRF (and even trying one on at the GTG) I now own my 2nd Patek! I was just making a routine call/ check in to my local AD to see if he had gotten this watch in (it's never in stock) and low and behold, one had arrived this afternoon. I hurried down to the dealer and tried it on. I was planning on waiting until the fall or Christmas to purchase, but once it was on my wrist there was no way I could leave without it.
Here is a teaser:

Love it in white! I saw it for the first time IRL on a TRF member recently and it looked perfect! Very sharp!

Thanks everyone. All my other watches are black dials and I just was drawn to this one for some reason. It has more of a silver to soft white palette depending on the angle and lighting. Can't believe they got one today. I'm a little shocked and in disbelief that I'm wearing it right now.
