.. the purpose was to celebrate (again) the new owner of Patek 5078R - but the watches which gathered there are worth sharing and they are not only Patek, so posting here on HoMe. There were 5078P owner and new 5078R owner.... 5078R And the sound: A bit s...
Excellent restaurant, my friend. :)))

I will try to listen to your sound files when I am back home. To tell the truth, I can't wait to listen to the différences between the platinum and the rose gold. Thanks, Ken. Nicolas
Yikes!

Enjoying sashimi with a Patek minute repeater singing in the background. It doesn't get much better than that! I think the 5402 was an appropriate choice, Ken. The room needed some muscle with all that speed and elegance :)
Holy moly!

Even the sideliner is superb. I love good food, but in that company I probably would forget to eat and to drink :-) Congrats to your friend who got the lattest one, it is an amazing piece and the RG works just perfect on that piece. Cordially, Oliver
True....

.. makes us wonder why they announced discontinuation of 78P and wonder whether 78R would be really short-lived? Who knows.. with that brand.... :-) Ken
post of the year????

wow...please allow me to catch my breathe....
Thanks!

Watches of the year, hahaha. They are all long timers and serious about watches.... None of them keep the watch "sealed" but let others handle and play with theirs. Thank you! Ken
excellent collectors
By: mjnoumoff : July 10th, 2014-13:10

Wow!

I love the 5078 more and more every time I see one posted. Just so simple, clean and elegant. The perfect watch in my opinion.

... heard some lovely music !! Both the MR look amazing ! In Beijing I cannot click on the links for the music unfortunately. Which sounded better?? Cheers, Gordon
They are both wonderful...
By: KIH : July 10th, 2014-11:01
.. can't tell which is "better". As with any individual MR piece, the sound is "different". Final approval by Phillip Stern or Thierry Stern, assembled by who, super small difference in the placement of each parts, small difference of the composite of the...
I can beat that, Ken
By: alphabeta81 : July 10th, 2014-20:21
Give me ONE of those 5 and I will have that as my only piece for the rest of my life. Heck, I would wear the 5078P with shorts and a t shirt, no problem, and have it as my dress watch too!
Still very impressive
By: Mark in Paris : July 10th, 2014-13:11
and very happy you keep on getting these diners for sharing those pics on and on. Cheers, Mark
Am I seeing this right?
By: estevezj777 : July 10th, 2014-13:56
Is my sight failing me or is that the word email at the lower part of the watch? Isn't it supposed to state something like: Swiss or Swiss made?
french
By: mjnoumoff : July 11th, 2014-09:11
i believe "email" is french for 'Enamel"
Superb gtg with superb watches!

When Japanese collectors meet, magic happens! :)

Amazing, Ken!... I was in Tokyo last week but travelling with families of 6 people altogether made it difficult to meet up with friends. I was their guide and translator haha Looking forward to travelling alone to have much more "free" time.
Typical Tokyo...
By: patrick_y : July 11th, 2014-10:00
Just kidding, still atypical, even for Tokyo. Thanks for sharing Ken! The food looks delicious.
I must confess...
By: KIH : July 11th, 2014-20:17
