Patek Philippe 5070G: 15 years of ownership.
You know I am not the biggest Patek fan here. Well there are some vintage Patek I would love to own, and much fewer moderns. In fact, less than ten modern Patek would make me dream. Among them, I am lucky to own those I wanted to get, and a bit more which...
Nice pics and perfect description 👍👌👌
I couldn’t have said it better 🤷♂️, you said it all Nico. You are a perfect Vlad 😈 you are the one who convinced me many years ago that it was 👌👌 on my wrist too in spite of its size vs my small wrist and I am so glad that I followed your advice. I’ll ad...
Yeaaah! Something special, it has some magic 😉
You described it quite well, it might not be the nicest chronograph from Patek, maybe the case is quite large, the two sub counters too close from the center, but still it is the coolest on the wrist 😎
I guess that would be a keeper in every collection!!
A beautiful watch with plenty of PP DNA 👌
I love the multi scale dial with its black applied arabics
Incredibly charming! Happy Birthday, 5070G!
Wonderful review and watch!
The link with the 2512 is strong indeed. Great reinterpretation of or homage to this piece of history. Best, Emmanuel credit: hodinkee & antiquorum ...
Congrats mon ami, on a stunning PP!
The wine cork and penny’s are the finalist pics, but the penny’s has the edge, very creative and interesting, well done! 👏🏻
Beautiful and love the manual wind.
I stupidly sold mine years ago. 42mm is a size I like too.
Hi Nico, your post is a strong declaration
of eternal love for your 5070G, written from your heart ! Your BIG love is also based on seeing perfection/feeling adoration in what others view as imperfections. Kudos to your 15th anniversary ! In addition to being a perfect Vlad as declared by Mike H, ...
Love it!!!! all the little things that drives some crazy make me love it more 🤣 thanks so much
for your pictures and wonderful story of your journey 😊
Thank you for not being a Patek Philippe fan boy...
There are watch collectors who think Patek Philippe can do no wrong... While I have a strong appreciation for the brand and would consider it amongst my favorite brands, it's important to not be deluded! Your 5070G is beautiful and has always been one of ...
I absolutely agree
The 5070 is a really charming watch.. despite being 42mm, it actually wears closer to a 40mm.. the case is really masculine and has a lot of presence And I can stare at the dial for hours I wore mine on a flight recently and was delighted to see the doubl...
I’ve always wanted to see one of these in person.
But even in photos it has an undeniable je ne sais quois.
Oof. Makes me want to look for a 5070...
Truly sublime - perfect dial, perfect case, perfect fit, and super movement. Still not replicated - I wish Patek could bring back this dial somehow! Cheers Peter
I love this reference and your description of it.
Wishing you another 15 years together in health!
Interestingly, some life seen online have a sharp interior angle on the back too
And I agree with you, these are great. Am also a sucker for the 5110… Now that they are somewhat reasonably priced again I’ve been very tempted.
Very happy for you my friend.
Your love and admiration is well placed with the 5070. So good and one of those watches that just has “Je Ne Sais Quoi”. Enjoy Amigo. M.
