Patek Philippe

A big thank you to everybody for your friendly comments.

 

This watch is truly special for me with its beautiful colour contrast of the rose dial (as Patek calls it in the papers) and the platinum case.

For my eyes the colour of the dial has nothing to do with „salmon“ as it is commonly referred to.

It took me quite a while but now I am happy that I could add this beauty to my collection. The 2008 edition from Patek’s Advance Research department with a handful of technical novelties. What do you guys think of the 5450? More or less a standard 5146 or...  

Love it!

That watch still haunts me

I have a 5146 (cream dial) as well.

I like the dial color and black markers of your 5450. Easy to read. BTW, you need to adjust your Moon Phase if the photos are recent. I double checked with my 5146 and a moon phase calendar to make sure - today is a new moon.

Absolutely stunning!!

I adore the classical AC look and the dial and metal colours are mesmerising!

Congratulations. Amazing watch!

Tried it on myself couple years back, but the wallet or/and watch budget that year was already empty. It’s the one Patek I’m still dreaming of adding to my collection one day.

Certainly a special time piece due to:
