This is a disease!!....here is the scenario:- was at a jewellers with the mrs today, its her birthday and our anniversary (16 yrs......elligible for parole soon!) Anyway, she ended up with a bloody expensive eternity ring and earings so while she was in a charitable mood, I thought I'd look at a few watches,.....oh dear! anyway, tried a few pateks, rolexes etc and nearly, very nearly, bought a milgauss but then I caught sight of a brown SO heritage on rubber....while I loved the watch, the colour didn't do it for me and SWMBO preferred blue, only problem is they only had black in 46mm plain and chrono on a mesh band and they were held for other customers. so, rather than compromise, I've ordered up a blue 46 on mesh and a blue SOchrono Heritage on mesh to choose between them, currently favouring the non-chrono but we will see!.....also confirmed my name on the wait list for a jumbo aquanaut in steel but lord knows when that will be available........hopefully I'll have some dosh to spare when it eventually comes in but the dealer (whom I know and trust) claim they only get on average one large Aquanauht every 18 months or so, despite being big Patek dealers. we will see anyway./....going to be adding a blue SO heritage or Heritage chrono soon....phew....sorry for the long post. ![]() |

Good choice, I had a bronze SOH it was one of those it will grow on me deals, it never did. Traded it for a Black. I really like the blue too, if I have the money some day...... |

Good to see you back, Doc. The blue SOH has grown on me massively, unlike the bronze. Good call. Look forward to some pics. Nick |

Doctor D, Good to hear from you again. It was you who inspired me to join this forum -- then you mysteriously disappeared. ![]() you were seduced away from us by the sweet song of the Patek Phillipe siren. That's understandable. And judging from your hunger for a jumbo Aquanaut, it seems the song is still playing. ![]() welcome back. Steve |
