my first Patek... well kind off...

Photobucket

in a very short while... it will be 2 years to the day since i exchanged marriage vows to the loveliest lady on the planet(in my eyes yuh ;) she has been a great wife and mother to our little boy and i thought of buying her a little gift... as you know, watches make pretty fine gifts... so to add to her collection of franck mullers(plural), rolex, gerald genta mickey mouse (she swears she's not a WIS, just bought them cause they looked pretty :) i got this most important lady in my life a Patek as her 2nd anniversary present :)

for me this is the most beautiful 'elegant style' ladies watch out there bar none... sure i've seen the franck mullers, the chopard happy diamonds, the girard perregaux cat's eyes, RM007, AP ladies royal oaks, the cartiers and the rolexes... but this one IS elegance & classy chic in a watch ;)

diamonds as they say are a girls best friend...

timeless elegance is a good quality to have in a watch ;)
especially if theres any intention of passing it on to the next generation
