5205 - Wish it were a perpetual
If they made a 5207 without the minute repeater or tourbillon, I'd be a buyer. It's an amazingly beautiful timepiece, but the annual calendar complication does not do it for me.
Wow Ed, you made it.

Congratulations! I believe 5127R is much more sensible than 5227R taking into account the price difference. furthermore, for such a simple Calatrava I trust that 37 mm is much better for you than 39 mm. How interesting, you are dreaming about 5131J... Are...
Thank you!

Kari, thank you for kind words! Nothing compared with Geneva Salon - this is the heart of the Patek Philippe world! The walls and the ceilings does remember the all days of 175 year history... And people at Salon are great and very supportive. P.S. Photo ...

Try to get your 5131 from a Patek Salon. You are already a client and you can be sure that if somebody gets 5131, it will be some major trusted ADs and Patek's own Salons. Trying is costing nothing... Except if it happens like it happened with me - then i...

On the other hand, the next 5131 should be 5131R. Would you have anything against to get the R and not J? I am sure Patek will not throw the people left on the J list to garbage when J is discontinued and R introduced. Finally, it is always possible to sa...

Hi Ed, that's incredible considering I just collected my 5127R on the Thursday, 16th of May. You'll find my short write-up here I also see you followed suit and went for the RG deployant clasp. Congrats, I'm loving every minute of wearing mine. ...
Thank you, Bob!

I would also recommend to see 5227 in the flesh as its dial color also awesome! its very creamy and warm, a bit different compared to 5127. New 5227 will be vey popular - the only thing which makes me doubing is its price. But as one of my friend told me ...
