Not only the slowest moving part
Thanks for the photo review.
That Patek Philippe has not only the slowest moving part but possibly the most patient owner....80 WEEKS of service restoration?! Yikes -- some of my watches don't spend that long on the wrist 
No wonder that you have to keep Patek Philippes for the NEXT generation.
Seriously, it is a nice watch and thanks for sharing; many of us would never see one in real life.
Regards,
MTF

The 3448 is one of my favourite Patek and a quintessential Patek perpetual calendar (along with 3940) in my opinion. Wear it in the best of health! - SJX
A truly magnificent Patek!
A beautiful piece, wow! Thank you for showing us these wonderful pictures of this wonderful wristwatch. I especially like perpetual calendars (they are one of the most useful complications), and if I ever got stranded on an island by myself, I would want ...
