First half ended with "The Dream" \'s enamel Rousseau Lion in a hot jungle, whereas, due to a PuristS friend with his wise suggestions and the support of the friendly staff at my AD, the second half is ending with the "ice cold enamel polar map" Dream com...
receive it and am now a proud owner ! Please come to visit and read the tea leaves at Mandarin Oriental & take some magical photos of the 5131P with your white box ! Cheers, Gordon
Looking forward to some nice side by side shots with the G! Are the pin holes located further down the lugs as well to accommodate the bracelet? If so perhaps order a strap that compensates for this to reduce the open space. Enjoy and once again huge cong...
photos of the G and P in the new year so that a better comparison can be made. I will also revert on the location of the pin holes. Thank you for the suggestion. Cheers, Gordon
What did you do? Santa ended up in the wrong place if you ask me. Enjoy that stunning piece. At my end, the wait continues. Did you size the bracelet? Looks too large in the first pic. Have a great 2018. Best, Volker
drunk & came to Asia instead of Europe, or Mrs. Santa liked to give presents to boys/men that are neither good nor naughty & ordered Santa to give the 5131P to me ! Yes, need to size bracelet properly after testing whether blue strap works better. I am lo...
Wow, what a "cool" piece it is, the ultimate World Time in my opinion, presented in Platinum (the noblest metal) and enamelled dial of the "Top of the World". Kudos Gordon!
Congratulations...this is a crowning achievement and, indeed, marks you here as our Enamel King, IMHO. The first two links of the bracelet look elongated - there appears to be a gap between bracelet and watch. This is intriguing and I think the only way f...
enamel slave ! :-( GTG anytime with you. No need to use sleepless night as the reason for a GTG ! Buy me drinks and you may "molest" my "Arctic" watch. :-p Cheers, Gordon
Yours 5131P is one of the prettiest samples that I have seen from the internet. The white enamel is clean and crispy. That's a perfect conclusion of the 5131 series. Best, Henry
notice the white enamel was "clean and crispy". I was just happy to have gotten an allocation ! Let me know when we could have a GTG to have a comparison of your R with my G and P. Cheers, Gordon
"cool" (as in both temperature and style) in hot & humid Asia. Hence, 5131P is meaningful to Asian owners ! Looking forward to your post about your 5131P. Cheers, Gordon
I will be surfing between SEA and Europe. Perhaps 5131P will keep me cool in Singapore. At least it will remind me about the part of the world I belong. Best, Kari
when we have a GTG ! LOL ! Seriously though, it was really simple. I took this pic by putting a Patek loupe in front of the iPhone camera. Please share your new photos now with this method. Cheers, Gordon
heft ! I need to find out first if this watch can take on a strap. Perhaps strap may match dial colors better. Only time will time and I will revert. Cheers, Gordon
Hi Gordon, what a wonderful year for you. They say part of the experience in acquiring a rare watch like yours is in the hunt. Now that you manage to "catch" the watch then its time for you to enjoy it. I can't wait to see this in the flesh, set it now to...
If the 5131P came as a piece unique, I would have wanted you to have it because I know how passionate you are about enamel pieces and world timers. And this to me is the best 5131 of the lot - the 5575 is still to me the best looking world timer.
is a piece unique because each enamel dial differs slightly or quite a bit ! Perhaps I am fooling myself with this thinking but what the heck, I have been living in "The Dream" since the Rousseau Lion and now with the 5131P, I am unable to wake up from th...
EXTREMELY VERY happy ! Literally I feel like I am still dreaming and need to pinch myself now and then to ensure I do hve the 5131P Hope to see your wrist shots soon !
Huge, huge congrats, Gordon! You must be in a state of perpetual dream - this coming so soon after your Rousseau induced coma I'm curious that you find this watch more discreet than your other enamel WTs. The colors are more earthy, but they seem pretty v...
