I miss you my 5711P
gone for a long spa at Patek, may I share some pics of my preferred PP
I hope with these pics, I could transmit you the amazing pleasure to wear such a piece
Definitely yes
your story concerning your world time reminded me the feeling I had when I received the phone call 3 years ago, which informed me that the 5711p was there
When I put this very heavy watch on my wrist, the reflection of the platinum so warm and dense.
This exact and natural position on the wrist, and the sensation to be alone to know what i wear
For all these reasons, yes it's definitely my preferred Patek
If I am understanding correctly - traveling to the spa after only 3 years ? why [nt]

Because I made an ugly deep scratch on the bezel
and only Geneva has the material to make a platinum recharge by laser
wear as much as you want
I guess, because the factory can repair the platinum bezel without polishing it down. That is good to know on the P pieces as they scratch so easily yet they should be worn regularly.
The blue dial is mesmerizing, I can definitely stare at it all day.
This is the One to own, congrats on the re-unite.

understand your feelings
how heavy it is on the wrist? do you know the rougly weight of this marvel?
It is easy to see that you like it a lot and it is easy ...
to see what you will missing and why. Only, the reason why it needs a long trip to the SPA makes me curious.
Anything else? Yes, I like that watch a lot

To treat the bezel by laser
Patek ask around 4 months and believe me, Oliver, it was a hard negotiation
But the result is stunning.
I think it was you ...
who thought it had to be done and now you have to be brave
You will love it even more, afterwards.
Cheers,
Oliver

Where's the diamond on the 6 o'clock base of bezel?
I thought the 5711P is different from the regular 5711 with a small diamond on the bezel at the 6 o'clock position?? Are you sure you are taking pictures of the ACTUAL 5711P??
Sorry....ignore my last post
sorry....I realize the small diamond cannot be seen from those images and yes, they are truly magnificent pictures you took...especially the one underwater!
Thanks!
Wow, this last picture would be worth a Masthead. [nt]

Wow...again another magnificent pic
Thank you for the images...very inspiring... Where do you live to be able to take such awe inspiring pictures?! BTW, I see a slight scratch line on the pic you took that shows the diamond between the 5-6 o'clock markers on the bezel. Is that the scratch you are referring to?
Yes and deeper than pic show, unfortunately
but I saw the result of the laser work from Patek already on a 5131J case, so I'm confident
I want to dive deep in this blue ocean...
... and never resurface again. Honestly, a great candidate for an 'exit-watch' (if such ever exists for us ;-))!
Cheers and be sure it will return even more desirable!

Before and After?
@Ch9698-- Do you have a before and after showing the damage to the bezel? I think I may see a trace between 11-12, but I'm wondering the kind of damage and the incredible work Patek's do in such cases.
