Car is not a RS7, but the watch is quiet good

One more time huge congrats
Take a lot of pleasure with and welcome to the Patek family

Congrats! 5980 Blue is a fantastic piece. So many desirable attributes in one watch: beautiful, sporty, elegant, complicated, comfortable ...

I agree with you that this one is likely to become attractive to collectors in future.

Oh, and the blue dial is definitely the way to go IMHO!

I couldn't take it, I ended up taking half my day to run down to San Antonio to the Patek AD there to size my 5980...it finally sits perfectly on the wrist. WELL worth the drive to have it done properly.



Gotta have a lume shot :-)

Very nice -- now any chance we could see an AP ROO comparison shot. Would be nice to see the scale difference between the two.
