Once again Patek Philippe excelled at the annual watch pilgrimage we call Baselworld. There were standout pieces and here I will give an overview the new collection. I hope to do more in depth reviews of each piece over the coming months. So to start with...
I am not sure if I have understood it correctly; if the watch comes with both straps, will a tool to exchange them be included? Any idea on how easy it would be to exchange between the two colours? Any information on whether the new clasp be rolled out to...
I enjoyed Patek's 2018 novelties even though we did not see a major technical introduction like the 5650G last year. Okay, we have to talk about the 7150R a little bit more. I think it's place in the Patek catalogue is under appreciated because it is a wo...
Thank you for a wonderful review and most amazing pictures taken! Really love the new releases... the 5740 is my grail! The Blue dial on the 5205G looks fantastic! And wow the new Aquanaut Chrono looks fantastic in your pictures! Thank you for posting!
It is too bad it is meant for the ladies. 38mm size and the casebook movement side looks perfect because the calibre does not have to be boxed in by blank space.

mostel, I would not go as far as you did with your first statement. Every brand will have the same issues with product, position, pricing, etc and not every model will be Internet stars nor auction house divas. I held out for many years from buying Patek ...
miranda, Thanks very much for the hands on summary with relevant changes highlighted. All the obvious questions and what-ifs have been asked already like "Why only 60-min chronograph; is there insufficient space in the Aquanaut case?" I note your reluctan...
Not a big fan of the Nautilus or Perpetual Calendar, but this one comes off as very clean. Not cluttered as most PC do. Thank you for a great report, my friend! Best Blomman
I am like the others, want the SS aquanaut, and the perpetual Natilus but I recently bought a JLC Duometre enamel dial and two Mosers (one SS perpetual, one concept). PP is a wonderful watch, own 8 of them and all but one have increased in value, however ...
