Agreed.

And I think the PP is timelessly elegant. All I can say, is that I'm pleased they are too small for me or else my bank account would definitely suffer! :)

Happy New Year Archie.

That is one beautiful watch. The definition of elegance!

Happy New Year Archie :)

Do you run an eBay business? You seem to have a lot of watches and other stuff for sale on there.

Hello,
YES - I do run an eBay store - store name - ARCHIELUXURY09

but the way sales have been.... it is more a hobby than a business - BUSINESSES MAKE MONEY???

Anyhow... jokes aside....

I do sell watches.... I did have my Patek 5107 on the store to bring a certain level of prestige... HOWEVER after watching the movie "THE BUCKET LIST" I decided to keep the Patek 5107 and just enjoy it! Hence I removed it from sale....

Kind regards,

ahhh hello archie.

Very nice watch. could do with a clean though....

I love the fact that you left the forum guns blazing saying how rubbish the movements are in breitlings and now come crawling back because you aren’t getting the attention you require from the general public with your Petek.

If i may, why in your adds on ebay do you try and feature your car? i can sort of understand the watch next the the logo (to symbolise a bit of class) but then you scroll down and see a picture of the car itself, as if to say "yep.... yeah i have one of theys, how classy am i"

as i say, nice watch i would love a Patek, in particular the new ones with the Patek Philippe seal replacing the geneva seal.

I think I can see my office building in that pic. Not very pleased to be back in it today though.

The PP is stunning, a really timeless piece. I would have one in a heartbeat.

Happy new year to all.

I totally respect PP but could never wear one. I dress like too much of a slob to pull off such a sleek watch (or any dress watch for that matter). My bank account is thankful.

Hello,
NEVER be intimidated by your watch! I may wear a Patek but I also wear K-mart clothes..... take a look at my YOUTUBE video for a MERCEDES 230SL

I am wearing my Patek with the worst shorts in the world!!!!

NEVER LET A WATCH BE TOO POSH!!!!

An SS B01 is fast becoming more and more irresistible. But my immediate need is a dressy watch and it will be a Rolex SS/YG DateJust II. In the meantime, this is my daily wear.

Now that Top Gun Dopplechrono is VERY nice. Great size too..... and a heck of a lot heavier that I thought it'd be when I tried one on. A lot of people moan about the Top Gun logo on the side, but I absolutely love it. Great watch!
