This is one of the sexiest objects, watches or else, that I have seen.

Cheers love to see this completed as of course you will …

I have considered a grey industrial look and a yellow gold case as options but felt they are not for me.

Ichiran · 12 May 2025, 02:02 PM

According to my AD it will be pretty soon...

Ichiran · 20 June 2025, 12:20 PM

Roger Smith updated that my watch has been shipped and should arrive next week

You must be so excited.

This is great! The series 5 is beautiful all around!

Congratulations!

Fwiw as much as I love the MR from Patek the idea that I can’t wash my hands or a dish while wearing creates a cause from concern. For me, every watch is to be worn and enjoyed as a daily, an MR would require me to fuss over it too much.

Thanks Gus for remembering

Yeah will be wearing this one very often

It feels like waiting to go to the podium after 2 hours of racing.

Yes what an apt description.

I remember the "shakes" I'd get in the adrenaline withdrawal - and weak knees.

Or just crossing in 2000th place at finish line after a Marathon - almost in tears.

Thanks Ed!

I got mine from an AD and the delivery schedule is not known until Sep last year. I placed my interest with the same AD in Oct 2023.

Ichiran · 1 July 2025, 02:57 PM

Finally it arrived! It feels so surreal to put this watch on my wrist. This is a day I will always remember

I don’t have the proper words to say how jealous I am of you. That’s a true grail and simply stunning. Major congrats. Just please, for all of us, wear that a lot.
