The enamel work is extraordinary
That cloisonné enamel world map is a work of art in itself. Each dial takes dozens of hours to create by hand. The 5131 is one of the most beautiful pieces Patek makes.
Pairing it with the Alhambra bracelets shows real confidence. Some will say it is too much. I say wear what makes you happy.
Life is too short for safe choices.

The girl can’t help it
She loves to stack goodies with her World Time… despite grown, wealthy men’s objections. LOL! Have a great Sunday everyone! Best, Robert ...
Yikes, makes me cringe, but to each their own.
ONLY THING I would wear on same wrist as my watch would be a string bracelet or something ALL LEATHER with no metal at all.
Thanks Oyster!
She worked hard for that watch and finally gifted herself with it. If it were MY watch I wouldn’t allow it either. LOL! Best, Robert
The combo is aesthetically quite pleasing =)
Now, the watch case will definitely end up with some love marks Cheers, Filip
So true AuHavre…
All my pieces have love marks too, despite me treating them like first born children. LOL Best, Robert
Many thanks PMH, she actually has fun and gets other people excited about watches
Women and men ask her about her watches, talk to her about their love of watches, laugh, have fun and share emotions. When I wear a watch I’m the invisible man! But that happens when she walks our dog compared to me walking the dog. LOL. I guess my wife a...
YOLO! Looks great
I love it when my wife uses her watches. She even once got rid of the loupe on her datejust 😂😱
The question is - what does she wear on the other wrist!
An ex girlfriend of mine was watch and jewelry seller. At that time I loved jewelry in this kind of style - lots of rings on wrist and fingers. She said, rather ONE piece unique than combining in this kind of style because it detracts from the main piece ...
That’s a wonderful point of view.
On her other wrist was a super wide Tiffany rose gold ‘bone cuff’ and of course her B25 Sellier Gold/Gold. Not quite balanced financially but from a female’s POV, the Birkin gets all the looks - not the Patek! The ladies don’t care or perhaps appreciate t...
So cool that she enjoys the watch and it looks great on her.
Wish there were more women like your wife. I could never put something on my wrist that could scratch my watch but to each their own and seeing people enjoying their watches and creating beautiful designs on their wrist combining them with other pieces is...
Derreck thank you, she understands the importance of the 5231J and uses it artistically
She gets people interested in the watch because of her kindness and softness. Which is quite opposite of me (and perhaps lots of men in this hobby) because I see each of the Pateks in my collection as a triumph of sacrifice that cost me a pound of flesh a...
That’s exactly what I meant when I said
it is quite refreshing to see someone enjoying their watch to the fullest, which in turn brings people to talk about, get them involved and interested, your wife seems to have a great personality. Alas I’m like you, my watches are important to me as I car...
We can learn a thing or two when it comes to courage from the ladies:)))
Kudos to her! P.S. I wouldn’t do it…😂
Z, thanks!
None of us guys would do it! LOL. Then again, very few people come up to us guys and tell us that our watch is cool. No emotions are shared, no stories are told and we walk smugly onward enjoying our treasures in private. Totally different styles between ...
Absolutely delightful! 😍😍😍
Needless to say that I would be mad to see my wife doing this with my watch but I understand the situation it’s not yours but hers so of course it’s up to her to decide how to wear it 😉 What a wonderful Worldtime, your wife has an excellent taste 👍👌👌 ...
Mike, thanks for your note!
Have a great week. Yes, she really enjoys her WT! Best, Robert
GLau, many thanks. Her watch is likely getting some love scratches LOL
Have a great week! Best, Robert
Dear Robert, your better half has excellent taste!
I have to say this combo looks very nice, albeit risky 😅. Btw, my wife is also proficient in scratching watches…… 🥲 Cheers, Henry
Love the fact that ladies are less anal and don't give a fig about scratches
They certainly get more fun out of life !

Thank you Bill, I entirely agree with your smart words
Let’s face it, we in this Patek section are a small group of relatively wealthy, hardworking and lucky men who own embarrassingly expensive toys. Sometimes out of boredom we nitpick each other on how to care for or wear our treasures. 99.9% of the world p...
