Closest AD to Minneapolis?

Feel free to shoot a PM if you prefer.Thanks!

Tried this one today
Good Day All,I had to try this one today at lunch, the AD just got it in has a in house movement and it is 18K RG;Take care,Eric

Patek 5711P 40th Anniversary - after the hysteria we are left with the beauty.
Posting again due to previous thread being locked: Recent birthday trip to Rome reinforced what a wonderful piece this is. Dress up for the evening or blend into the background when simply walking round the streets with other tourists. Or perhaps to attend the ballet at the Royal Opera House.A walk at the beach.Or just a quick coffee.With a little lume.What a superb and versatile piece.

Any 5110 or 5130 owners??
