Patek Philippe

Last Thursday I had the immense pleasure to pick up my new Patek Philippe 5712/1A-001 at my local Patek Philippe Boutique. What a wonderful day!

I'm happy and proud to present some quick and dirty pics I took the same day. Enjoy these pictures of the virgin watch (I already crashed into a door latch in the meantime and the bezel is unfortunately no longer flawless and shiny....).

All pictures are taken with my 8 year old Canon PowerShot A610 with amazing 5 (!) mega pixels.

Enjoy it a bot, before polishing the bezel!

Best,

The first scratch is always hard to accept but the enjoyment wearing this beautiful timepiece is for sure not reduced! This is the "price" we all have to pay if our watches are no safe queens. And at least it gives some patina and a personal history.

This is such a great watch. Suits any occasion.

I still find the 5712 the most attractive Nautilus, even after looking at all the other more recent Nautilus versions. I like how slim resp. flat the case is and this gives it an extra elegance.

Enjoy it and post more pics.

Stefan T. , probably not far from away you.

I hold on with the final decision until Basel to avoid any mispurchase. And after one week of wearing it formally dressed for work or casually with sweater, jeans and sneakers on the weekend I can confirm that it suits any occasion. I'm very happy with it!

Here are some more pics as requested:



















This pic I took before purchase during a session at the PP boutique (I used it as background on my BB in pleasant anticipation). Different lighting, different colour.

Thanks for the additional pics. The wrist shots show the fascinating blue dial very well.

Stefan and now we are lucky that you share it with us. Thanks!

You treat yourself very well and I hope it makes you smile for a very long time. Congrats!

The 5712 is a wonderful watch and I think you made the right decision. It´s simply great design and elegance.

in 2011 I was first interested in the 5711 but my dealer could only show me a 5712. Generally, this model has everything I dislike on watches: moon-phase, power reserve indicator, no date window and a lot of mess on the dial. But I somehow fell in love with it immediately and bought it as my very first PP.

I wish you a lot of fun with this watch!
