Patek Philippe

The eagle had landed yesterday and I have to say this is probably going to be one of the last few monumental pieces I will add to the collection. I feel that my journey with watch collecting is perhaps approaching its last phase now, having collected watc...  

Wear it in good health. Regards

Especially the verso view. It is magnificent!

Much appreciated

I actually thought it was rose gold. I love this design so much with the stepped case/bezel. It looks beautiful!

Indeed the stepped bezel really helps to accentuate the profile of the case. Best Gatsby

I have enjoyed your contribution to our community over that decade and more that you mention and know exactly where you are on your collecting journey. You have chosen well with the 5070 and they are all stunning in their own way. One of the last greats f... 

I suspect you might be right. This could be the last of the chronographs for me. I am still game for owning a older, more complicated Patek. These days, I am more interested in looking back rather than looking forward when it comes to watches. Best Gatsby... 

Thanks for the review and wrist shots. The 5070 series is well liked and the G is a good choice. The strap looks good ! Enjoy it often !

I hope to catch you in person one day. Was speaking to Maxi from THG today and your name popped up ! Best Gatsby

Quite literally a hobby you can sit back, relax and just enjoy. Thanks for sharing

Of the same model I really love wearing mine I generally wear smaller pieces but even though this is a larger watch it still wears perfectly on the wrist You have a wonderful watch which is a joy to wear Julian

This watch is amazing. It’s very understated and doesn’t scream for attention. You either know or you don’t…gotta say it can be potential great daily wearer. Best Gatsby

You know I value your comments a lot. Best Gatsby

Like you, I have this watch and a small wrist. Your debunking of the “cons” reassured me on several points. I know which watch I’ll wear today — Thank you!

Let’s see some pics when you can start a roll call someday when you’re free — we should all celebrate this reference. Best Gatsby

More photos to come for sure. Best Gatsby

most desirable Chronographs ever made. And as the cherry on the cake without date ☺️ All the best and wear it in good health! Thomas

and enjoy it in great health cheers

The white gold case with silvery dial is truly versatile and can basically match all straps and clothes. An excellent choice. Compared to steel sport references, it does offer much more and as well as a perfect value. This understand strap (with croco ins... 

Some of the reasons you mentioned for acquiring this piece are exactly why I added it to my collection. And your strap choice is well done. I’ve found that my personal preference is to wear it on a pin buckle strap rather than the oem deployant. May you g...  

The watch looks killer on your wrist ! Curious to see how it pairs up with the tang buckle. Can you tell me more why you prefer the tang to the deployant buckle? Best Gatsby

Thankfully I was able to visit the Henri Stern Agency here in NYC and they offered a matte grey strap with pin buckle. I actually prefer the look and it’s very comfortable.

You have no idea how many times I read your review!! I finally pulled the trigger and I’ve never been happier. Best Gatsby

It’s a truly special piece for your collection. Viel Spaß damit 😄

Thanks cayenne. I know Werner well. Super cool fella…and we get along just fine from one Gatsby to another! Best Gatsby

Enjoy the 5070 to the max, Mr G 👍

A timepiece that will live on for a long time within your family. History in the making, one can say.

it is an excellent chrono...I doubt even if PP can repeat itself with something that will beat can beat the 5070 ! IMHO WG is the best considering the dial vs numerals/hands contrast...Pt while I understand its allure, it is too ridiculously priced to buy... 

You totally get me. Thank you once again for your kind words 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Best Gatsby

It is also one of my favorite offers from Patek, especially in a simple chronograph. It truly is a great piece and marks the end of an era when decided to move away from their relationship with Lemania which they've had for so many years and develop their... 

Thanks for the personal account. I find these personal thoughts to be the most rewarding parts of posts.
