OOPS I did it again!

I could not get the images of this watch out of my head. I actually wanted this last year when I bought the 5712G. There was something I loved about being able to wear a PP no matter the weather and not worry about it getting wet or high humidity to ruin a leather strap!

This watch is as comfortable a watch as I have ever had and extremely easy to read! Both important as I get older! The finish and detailing of the watch is amazing. Without further delay, my new 5164!

Thanks so much Mike! You have one of the nicest collections I have seen yet! Now I need to get a little AP in the collection to round it out!

Great choice. What a stylish, utilitarian watch. As someone in an earlier post once pointed out, I love the globe-within-the-globe design of the dial. It really emphasizes the globetrotter intent for this time piece. At the moment, I'm hopping between 6 different countries and crossing multiple timezones. This would be my Patek-of-choice, but alas my daily wearer on this trip is just a "lowly" GMT Master! hahahah!

Big gratz! Enjoy!
