Such a simple dial ... Such a complicated movement !!
And what a SUPERB finishing !!

Had the chance to tkae the pics of this super watch at my AD a few days ago

Route 66 · 23 October 2010, 08:34 AM

THAT'S IT!!

I've leaving my wife, for this watch!

Numismatist · 23 October 2010, 08:35 AM

Fantastic watch! I see the new complications do email as well!

rxonmymind · 23 October 2010, 08:45 AM

WOW!
Email TOO! I'm sold!

Sadly it'll only email in Italian, German & French...

thesmallwave · 23 October 2010, 09:15 AM

What't the power reserve on this?What that email mean there?This must be water resistant to 300 ft/100 m right?Very beautifull, indeed.

WatchNerd · 23 October 2010, 09:26 AM

Only problem I can see is that I'd never be able to tell time with it. I'd end up wearing it face down all the time just to watch the movement!

That is absolutely stunning.

PHDX2 · 23 October 2010, 09:45 AM

Nice!!!

MBEECH · 23 October 2010, 11:48 AM

Such a fantastic watch..."email" mean enamel in French.

Very nice but I wonder who the rocket scientist at Patek was to put '5000019' on the dial.

IMO that spoils the dial big time.

TSW · 23 October 2010, 05:16 PM

Beautiful!

sleddog · 23 October 2010, 05:18 PM

Spectacular pictures.....The movements on a PP are so ornate!!!

I have to agree with Eddie though,the numbers should be removed from the dial....
Thanks for posting!

Patek often prints the movement number on the dail (ONLY on their tourbillon models)
Look at the back and you'll find excatly the same number on the movement

Have to agree

Fantastic timepiece with a super nice classic look.

But yeah, who came up with the brilliant idea to put those numbers on the dial? What bothers me even more though, is the "email" thing. I know what it stands for in French, but I'm sorry, when I see the word "email" I can only think of the more computer related meaning of this word.

Cheers,
Joe

That is why they didn't need it on the front.

WatchTimes · 24 October 2010, 09:19 AM

Doesnt matter what I say as I cant truly afford this (although a 5690P is on my list within the next 18 mths)

That being said I do not like EMail on the dial (yes I know its French) and I do not like the movement # on the dial.

IF I was in the market for a watch of this level I honestly think this would stop me from this one.

B. Doggy · 25 October 2010, 01:19 AM

whoa

vukotab · 25 October 2010, 06:10 AM

That is simply gorgeous!

I did not know that. Thanks for the info. I think the ambiguity of this word on the dial spoils it a little for me but that movement is beautiful.

Maxtor · 25 October 2010, 08:19 AM

Beautiful works.

HL65 · 25 October 2010, 08:24 AM

Superb--amazing watch!!

Mantooth · 26 October 2010, 02:33 AM

I much prefer the 5078p

*not my picture, borrowed from online*

The "email" on the front eats me up, though.

boa2 · 26 October 2010, 05:42 AM

Stunning pics, Bruno!

Mockingbird · 26 October 2010, 09:28 AM

"Email" on the dial shouldn't bother me as much as it does. If I were to have any Patek at this point though it would be an annual calendar. (there are some beautiful Patek annuals out there!)

Sweramic · 26 October 2010, 09:44 AM

Simply stunning. I am a fan of the minute repeater complication as well. To the OP: Did you get to hear how it sounded?

Shade · 26 October 2010, 12:22 PM

Okay... who can I murder to get that watch?
