Patek Philippe

well well... having acquired my first Patek, a 5196j, a few months ago, i was planning to "buy" my next piece, a 3738 golden ellipse. however, for some mysterious reasons, i opted for the AD5970r instead. call me crazy -i acknowledge i am!- but i went to ... 

I presume it was the special limited edition 5970R which was only today available at the AD ?

Some one who prefers a 5196 over a 5970?? I think that I to may smell a rat

Oh yes April 1st............. It is going to take something really very very special from PP to better this for me anyway....... Happy April fools day.... And yes it makes me want to cry every time I look at my 5970's........It gets very emotional... M. T...  

...  

... will leave me even more flabbergasted than the car (or better to say the car that I think it is)

well, taste is a very individual matter. the 5196 is, like the 3738, simple, elegant, understated, pure, zen. i can wear it hidden beneath my sleeve, everyday and almost in every situation. to the untrained eye, it may just look like a ... better swatch (...
