All time classic
My all time favorite classic Constellation :) My all steel version is my beater and this 2 tone is an occasional wear. Its a visual treat. What an elegant must have dress watch. Happy Weekend :)

Omega Seamaster or Tag Heuer Aquaracer?

Help me, please! I don't know the model!
Hi guys!I am sorry to use my first post to ask for help, but I would love to finally discover what is the model of my Patek Philippe!It belonged to my Grand papa, he must have bought in the 1950's or 60,s, I'm not sure. I don't have the box. Its made of rose gold (I guess) the band and the case. Also, I would like to know how much it's worthy, more or less.Please, I am not trying to sell the watch, I just want to have an estimative!Thanks very much!

Patek non Nautilus/Aquanaut with Shorts? Yeah, I do that.
Changed the strap immediately after I bought my 5205R from shiny to matte just to make it a little more casual. I find that this works. Do you find yourself wanting to wear your dressier Patek's even if you're wearing casual attire just so you can enjoy it on your wrist? I think some references it just doesn't work, and others mix with just about anything.
