I don’t wear this watch as much as I should, it’s absolutely stunning on a gen Patek strap, and feels super solid compared to most reps these days (especially those rattley Miyota reps)!

A vintage Patek that I picked up in Hanoi on a stupidly cheap and butter soft ostrich strap.

This very much depends what rep you’ve got!

Firstly, if your Nautilus is on a bracelet, then the answer is no. The end links for straps are different and have a little tongue that goes into a metal insert in the end of the strap, the bracelet end links are different and don’t have this.

Secondly, gen straps only fit on the SW200 Nautilus rep, which I’m not sure is even available anymore but worth a try if you’re interested!

3 Series!

It’s a vast improvement over the Vauxhall Insignia I’ve been driving for the past few years, I must say!!

DC got promoted!!

:thumbsup: 

Had a few BMW's and currently got a 5 Series myself.  The 3 will feel a good bit nicer than the Insignia.

Makes the daily commute a more pleasant experience, I had an old E36 many moons ago but wrote it off in a McDonalds car park and have missed it ever since! This isn’t quite as quick, but I drive like an old man so that’s not an issue for me!

Writing a E36 off in a maccies carpark isn’t what you expect from a renown Patek collector DC haha

Yeah, the F Series BMW's are nice places to be.  The new G Series models are even nicer!  Doing donuts in Miccy D's with the bass pumping through the big stereo :D 

Once you get an auto 5 Series you'll be more like an old man :D although I still drive mine like a BMW driver from time to time.  I think I'm hitting my midlife crisis as I really fancy a 340i, especially as my next door neighbour has just got an ex-demo 335d xDrive M Sport with all the toys.

Been a long time since I last wore this piece, 5970g...

FFA97_B0_C-5_CD3-429_B-_B60_E-_DA794226_

There’s a lot I don’t like about this rep. It’s not as thick as it should be (bet you never thought you’d hear me say that about a rep), although the watch feels solid and is generally decent quality the crown is not especially nice, I wish it had stick markers rather than diamond markers, it should be a chronograph but it’s not, etc etc.

But there’s an awful lot I absolutely love about it. The concave bezel is delicious and pure Patek, plus they got the lugs just right, the movement is solid and hasn’t missed a beat, it’s spot on to gen case diameter at 40mm (which is the perfect size for a watch), but most importantly it’s one of only two that I’ve ever seen and quickly became unavailable after I purchased it, so I could never sell it as it would be almost impossible to get another one!

Think I need to get a different strap for it just to change it up a bit and encourage me to wear it more!!
