Rob, love the 3970P. Just wonderful.

I think the 5130 may be my all time favorite PP, I have always loved that watch.

I am completely speechless. That is the most amazing 1/2 a million dollars in watches I have seen.

You own the watch that I consider the NICEST dial of any watch EVER made - the 5970 J. I literally love that dial.

A few weeks ago I started a thread looking for a larger watch with a similar dial here - http://www.watchfreeks.com/view_topic.php?id=6487&forum_id=37

You have the most amazing collection I have ever seen.

I removed your pic from that other thread. Sorry about that. I just found it online when doing an image search for that model. I love that dial and your watches.

LOL...no need to...I don't mind.

I once was doing research on a VC and was reading a report on the watch and the author had used one of my photos...I find it amusing.

 

Cheers,

Rob

                                               Resume:

Watch Collection Curator.

Duties: Responsibe handling & care for Rob's aka Donut's Timepiece Collection.  Experienced in all phases of cleaning, timekeeping, polishing and especially ..... wearing.

Why?  A collection of this calibre needs a curator. I have had previous experience as one already and I would make an excellent choice for this position (which I have just created), especially when travelling abroad. This is where you will need most of my expertise as it is just too chaotic when conducting business or just going through customs for a world businessman such as your self to constantly keep track of these valueable timepieces.  What's more, my services and time are very flexible. I can be wherever you need me in very short notice, but would prefer a permanent postion so you might as well get a room ready. .........................................

SO!!!!!!   Am I hired????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

NO???????  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :%:%:%:WW:WW:WW:WW:WW

I was invited to tour all of their factories and the Patek Museum...the process blew my mind.

Thanks,

Rob

As someone who can appreciate fine timepieces such as these, I have this irresistable urge to be YOU right now!

Nice STUFF, I must say. :b
