5650G deliveries have arrived!

Patek is delivering the 5650G to ADs in the US... This one was delivered and sold.
I'm amazed at the speed these watches have turned up at ADs. Anyone else seen this watch yet in the wild?

Pretty crazy that these are arriving so quickly. Would have thought it would have been a few more months at least.

Surprising they are out already. Not surprising, they are impossible to get!

Yes. And are you wearing yours or leaving it sealed?

Definitely wearing it...

Watches have to be worn to be appreciated! Why purchase a $60k watch to have it sit in a safe or vault? My motto is always..."If you've got it, flaunt it!"

This is not a regular 5711... (hint: notice the date window)

Now that is something you don't see everyday. Let's see the 5650 when you get a moment.

Very nice.
My motto would be 'buy it, wear it and enjoy for yourself'.

Great to hear you wear your watches as well - (and fantastic Nautilus) I am a big fan of the T&Co story and stamp.

A great combo with the 5711/1P and the 5650G!

Do you prefer one over the other? AR Aquanaut vs a low-production platinum Nautilus, can't get any better than that!

Now that is something!!!!!!!

A 5711P with T dial... That is the money shot right there, the 40th is nice but this is the king 5711P in my opinion...
