My 5107 came in

Yesterday, to my surprise my Patek 5107 I bought on friday came in. I was not expecting it until later this week. It came with both brown and black Patek straps. I am going to have my jeweler put the brown one on the watch.

Here are a couple of images, sorry for the quality, my macro in my camera is not the best and I have not figured out the best lighting and angles for better shots.

Huge congrats Mort!
That's a great looking Patek. You must be very happy with that
I like the display back and the way the crown guards are shaped into the contour of the case.

Nice watch. I love the PP.

Almost bought a platinum annual calander, but one of my grail Rolexes came in!

Wear it in good health.


John.

Just remember Mort.

If you don't like it I could stretch to $500 to take it off your hands.

Thanks everyone. You people are how I convinced my wife to let me but the watch in the first place. I told her how could I not purchase such a timepiece that all my friends on the Rolex Forum said I needed and was a good choice.

Of course I am not allowed to buy another watch until the next decade.

So much for the black monster I had my eye on.
