Patek 3417 - a quick photo diary review
So, this Patek "toolwatch" has been on my wrist for a week now. I agree with Oliver that it needs a nice black leather strap..... I will go for mat black alligator. I have spent the last week looking at this watch so much.....from wearing a pair of jeans going out for a coffee to having dinner in a suit, it has been on my wrist the whole time and sat perfectly at home in all environments. Here are a few I took today from the garden.
Such a wonderful profile......the lugs are just superb to my eye.
Yes, after a week i know that this is a great watch for my collection. Absolutely no regrets here.

well....
......i am just relieved that I don't judge my masculinity by the size of my watch.
Beautiful!
Understated, yet truly stunning! Amagnetic it might be, but it is attracting me! :-)

Thanks Oliver....
. ....on the one hand, I agree with you on the strap.....on the other, my wife likes the brown leather....uhhhm.
I agree with your wife ...
when it comes to simple & brown leather - without any "fancy" stitching. Matt finished aligator or even calf/pork - not too dark, not too light. The added "warmth" should looks just perfect ... Regular straps of today look (slightly) different most of...
