Mr. Puffy, I see that you are holding a fund-raiser over in the TRF FS forum. Does that mean you put something on "hold" on your recent city-wide shopping trip?

i'm only selling it because i have another LV mate... the one for sale has been sitting there for the past few years not doing anything so someone else might enjoy it

and yes, i'm seriously looking into another PP and also AP... i also quite fancy a 116718...

and if someone has an NOS 1665 do let me know as i have cash waiting!

Nah, I think it was an impulsive purchase. I did that the other day with a Mars bar...it must be pretty much the same thing!

I have said it elsewhere Ken, so you know my thoughts on this beautiful Patek.

But let me again add my congratulations on your choice, I just love watching the retrograde return back to one..........That is of course if I don't blink!!!!

Perhaps Ken we should run a book on what your next purchase would be?? LOL :)

Ken - I've probably known you for the least amount of time out of anyone here - but I don't think anyone is seriously believing it :) (said with the utmost respect and reverence :)

Ken and I quote "As for next purchase I am finished for a bit!"

If only I had a £ for each time that I have said that and I would be 1/2 way towards buying a replacement strap for the 5205
