I finally joined the club!

Greetings all,

My very first post here on this forum, that I so thoroughly enjoy reading, just to express my joy in having dipped my toe in the Patek owner pool having recently picked up a 5167/1A



I Was a bit apprehensive about getting the bracelet, but it truly is a thing of beauty and really fits the watch well. I plan on getting the rubber strap later, but for now I am loving the watch and it will definitely not be my last PP.

Thanks for looking.



-R

Congrats on a rare bracelet incoming! I'd have some fun and get the strap in green or blue if you can.

Congrats, nice to see it on a bracelet for a change. Makes it a very versatile watch as you can switch between the strap whenever you want. I'd be asking the AD for a free strap, but you'll probably have to pay for the deployant.

Looks great in your picture. Sometimes the bracelet looks off but it looks on point for you.
