Finally joined the Patek club! Originally thought I’d lean towards a Calatrava, but after trying a few pieces on I realised I wanted something with a bit more presence, so I put myself down on a short list for a couple references.
The moment I tried the 5205R on wrist it just clicked. The weight, thickness, green dial against the rose gold, and overall feel were on another level compared to photos online.
Also have to give credit to the boutique experience as it genuinely felt special rather than transactional. Very happy 😎🙌
