Greetings to the Patek Philippe forum! It's been over 60 years since someone in my family has purchased a new Patek. The last was my grandfather in I think 1950 during a trip to Monaco, ref. 2460 with a 27 SL movement, a classic piece. I have this watch and wear it on occasion as warranted. I think that I may jump in with the new ref 5205 with the grey dial, I am very struck by this watch. I have a number of Panerai, Rolex and IWC which are of course wonderful however I am pretty sure my next piece will be the ref. 5205 sometime in 2011. If any members have thoughts about the movement, style, likes, dislikes (if any, hard to imagine) etc. and pics would be great, about this ref 5205 to add please chime in. Thanks....
The 5205G is actually my brother's so I couldnt comment much on it. However, in the few minutes that I held it, it's a wonderful watch with exceptional finish quality. Especially love the lugs.
ps
glorygunners, nice to have a brother like that where you both can share in this disease of horology. This message has been edited by masterspiece on 2010-12-30 17:48:54
