Independents: Thanks!

That was an interesting pairing. At times (like in the photo) I really liked it. Other times I thought it looked too cheap with it.

Independents: NWD - My first Laurent Ferrier

I’ve wanted to try out a LF for some time. Specially, I’ve been lusting after the Sport Auto for a couple of years. This Square Micro Rotor was recently listed by a dealer I trust so I thought it would be a fun one to try. I have a love affair with watches that are strap monsters, and this one fits

Patek Philippe: This is great info.

The one I’m looking at is the Geneva seal 324 movement. As for dials, I kind of like the idea of the grey/blue of this generation.

Patek Philippe: Guidance on a 5711 purchase

I’ve been wanting to add a 5711 to my collection for quite some time, specifically the transitional -001 reference with Geneva seal. I just had a big milestone with my business so I’m thinking of adding one now. I found one for sale through a dealer I’ve used in the past and trust. It’s a complete s

Patek Philippe: Great watch and great pics!

I recently hit a huge milestone so I’ve been debating on a watch to celebrate. I’m torn between this exact version of the 5270g or seeking out a Geneva seal 5711. Your pics are definitely enticing me one way! Do you ever wear it on casual straps? If I went 5270g I’d mostly wear it on a casual straps
