though I can’t help thinking: “would a PP 5227G have been the better choice?”.

More original than the Patek And certainly lower production too

Nice suit and belt. Ooo and a Lange 1 - stealthy piece that is almost like a masonic handshake.

I like the monochrome look of the white gold and silvery dial and think it fits very well with more colourful clothes and leisure wear as well. Personally I’m not into yellow or red gold, Reuven. The only coloured gold I like is moonshine gold, but that’s a whole other watch 🙂
