New acquisition of 5164R 😊
Got this practical traveller from my AD, a good start for year of the dragon!
A bit puzzled on how to maintain 120 water resistance with its time zone correctors…
Cheers, Henry

congratulations on this beauty
my 5990A is also 120 meters and has got even four pushers and the date
Thank you, penfriend.
The visible gap between the pushers and watch case does look a bit hazardous though…..
I asked my AD and was only warned to use the pushers under water
everything else is fine and I have been diving with it (in a pool only)
Congratulations 🍾!
One of my favorite modern PP. I love the combination of rose and brown. I also think Patek rose looks more yellow than some other brands which makes it look more classy (imo). Probably two of the most useful functions. And great buy!
Thank you, Gary. The two time zone function is indeed very useful and perfect for travelling.
The rose gold also matches well with the brown dial with gradient.
Thank you, Gary. The steak was nice, but it has probably exceeded my quota for a few months.....
The year of the dragon 🐉
has good omen for you 👍
Enjoy this wonderful pice often !
How os the heft ?
Thank you, Gordon. A good sign indeed. Appreciate the help from my AD.
The weight is nice, much lighter than 5740, yet still with adequate weight.
congratulations. However, unlike Travel Time watches such as the 5524 and 7234, which have a left button lock function, in my case, I sometimes accidentally pressed the button on the 5164R while traveling, so please be careful.
Thank you, Shun. Indeed need to be careful of not accidentally activate the pusher.
Regarding the water resistance issue, do you have any concern? Certainly will never press the pusher under water. But will you be worried of water getting into movement through he gap between pushers and watch case even without activating the pushers?
I have never worn 5164 underwater, so I don't know, but it may be difficult to use it that way.
Many congrats, Henry, for this great new acquisition!
Mine says hello:
It has proven to be a really great travel watch.
All the best

It's indeed a very versatile and useful time piece for travellers. It willl definitely have lots of wrist time.
