NWA and first of 2024

I’ve been eyeing this one since its release in 2022. Unfortunately, many ADs gave me the runaround, but this weekend I finally was able to secure a new 2024 for a price I was comfortable with. My first Patek AC and, given how much I travel, the dual-time function is very useful.

I am quite fond of the WG’s greyish tone in certain lights. This is my first Patek purchase in awhile, and now that prices are materially cooling, I will look towards the 5270 and the 5370 :)

Awesome watch! Congratulations! One of the best I consider complication and form wise. I am personally not a huge fan of chronographs, only in some cases when it balances out the dial, but in general just creates unnecessary thickness. This watch, however, is great overall and not flashy. Wear in good health!
Works well with your Brunello trousers ;)

Great incoming! Aside from its great and charming case design (a field in which not many brands put much efforts into nowadays), its movement is stunning. Enjoy it well :)

It literally looks like they put a piece of sandpaper on the dial. I get Patek is releasing these contemporary watches to attract younger clients, but this watch is a real miss.

5164G is interesting but no way I’d sell my 5164A for it. Meh….. not overly excited about anything there, which is good since I’d rather not play the stupid game any longer.

Congrats I absolutely love that dial. The detail on the side of the case is pretty cool as well.
