I gave a present to a business friend in the spring:
A new Pated 5711-010. Those were my thanks for exceptional honesty and also friendship. Now we will meet next week onboard a yacht in the Med. I do not want to wear the same so my aching watch will be this even the WR is just 60 meters. Best, Kari ...
Thanks for the correction!
Far from being a PP expert - it's good to learn something new!
The differences are small but still visible.
The biggest difference, however, is not visible. The case of 3712 is made of two parts just like the late Gerald Genta designed Nautilus in 1976 while the case of 5712 is conventional and made of three parts. Best, Kari
Another good one
is to look at the number on the date. In 3712 they are not "turned". Best, Kari
And another difference?
I think the 3712 has a shiny moon and the 5712 moon is frosted, right?
Thats a 3712a Kari. The predesesor of the 5712a. Yes you should wear it in the yatch.
It will look great in the mediterainian. Best wishes. Wear it well my friend. Geross.
Thank you Geross.
I will feel very uncomfortable onboard. The yacht is so big that in my lifetime I could not get a similar one. On the other hand, in my part of the world a yacht should have Finnish-Swedish ice class 1A because the dot is below 3,000 tons. What a relief! ...
What a nice gift to honor such a friendship..
Friendship such as that is very special and rare, especially in this day and age. Aloha, Bob
A great gift.
And it's the best when the reason behind it is watch suits the trip well,Kari. Best, Ahmed
Yes, I hope to start new ventures with this NY stock listed company.
They have first class people starting from the CEO and that's promising a bright future for them. Best, Kari
My plans are unclear due to family issues.
The guy is nearly Croat: born in the southern part of Italy, educated in London and has been working round the globe. Best, Kari
50 shades of grappa..you'll love it...also we have some
good wines but that's zabreg1's department
You mean:
If I start drinking this Royal Grappa, I can say goodbyes to hangovers? Best Kari
If I start drinking lots of Grappa Royal,
the quality of my life will improve and I will live much longer??? Best Kari
Absolutely know effects of conservation in EtOH
Question is how long do you wanna live?
The 5712 is an excellent choice..
Hi Kari, The 5712 will be the perfect compliment to your friend's 5711. It goes without saying that was a wonderful and generous gift for your friend. Have a great trip on the Mediterranean! We just returned from Lago di Maggiore where I spotted 2 guests ...
Absolutely love the 3712... amazing piece!
60m plenty as long as you stay close to or above the water surface! Enjoy!
How can I become your business friend??!! :-)
If only all business colleagues were as generous and appreciative as you are Kari! That is why you are so successful
I do not know about success but
also anothet business friend got a Patek early spring. But never before a deal - only after successful completion of the same. It is my way to thak and always without commitments. Best Kari
I love your style Kari!
I would do something similar in your shoes as a Patek is quite a momentous gift!
First class people, first class gift.
Unfortunately I can't afford Ferraris. Best, Kari
I think giving a client a car of any sort
would be in bad taste compared to a nice watch. The Italian mafia might disagree somewhat
I would not even dream about giving a car.
The idea is not to bribe but to show respect & friendship plus thank for the past. I think a modest Patek serves well in this capacity. Best Kari
If I may politely say Kari
I think there is no such thing as a modest Patek and most purists would concur that a gift in the form of a Patek is quite extraordinary by any standards. The Sultan of Brunei used to give gifts like Cartier watches to his party guests but even he has sto...
When I say "a modest Patek"
I mean a watch made of steel and without complications. That likes 5167 and 5711. Both great for shipping men. Best, Kari
You are right!
I had totally forgotten about the association of the Aquanaut and Nautilus with the sea
Just have a look at Nautilus: it's an old fashioned porthole.
I believe in French "Hublot". LOL! Best, Kari
Of course! Of course! :-)
Imagine if you were in the aeronautical industry and decided to give a Patek Pilot's watch to your business colleagues??!! )
Very big Gesture Kari.
If you give me a nice Patek I will also invite you next week on my boat in the med. let me know if you are anywhere near Mallorca. This is testament to me that this hobby of ours is as much about people as it is watches. Have fun on the Med my friend. M.
Naturally!
Buy first you need to contract with me plus 10 fantastic, reasonably priced tankers. Bulk carriers are also okay as they are the latest field my company is dealing with. Then we can go sailing. Best Kari
Ahhhhh. So it's about $$$$$'s
Sadly I can't do that. I'll have to invite someone who just likes me đ. So where do I find one of those ???? Have fun anyway my friend on the high seas. M.
What about your wife?
My auditors would not like if âŦâŦâŦâŦ are not involved. Enjoy your sailing! Kari
Will do. Not married. Been there done that got the T shirt.
Don't feel sorry for me I'll have lots of people with me. đ. Enjoy your boating as well. M.
