_DC_ 218 Posted February 10, 2016 @budfox1028 ^^ I believe it's circa 43mm too, that's the only reason I don't own one. I like how they look, there's one that's super close to a 5970, but it's just too big :( DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
budfox1028 0 Posted February 10, 2016 Hey DC! This one is 41.5 mm by 12.5 mm, it fits quite nicely on the wrist! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
budfox1028 0 Posted February 10, 2016 I wanted this one, sorry I stand corrected it's 11.5 mm thin, but I'm quite happy with the one Josh sent. http://www.pf-818.com/-p-14609.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC Indeed I did mate, it's 41.5mm, but the thickness measures more like 12.5 mm. The strap measures 22 mm at the lugs and 18 mm at the buckle. Trying to find a good dark brown shiny croc leather option. I think it would make this a serious watch once I find it. All the Calendar features work! It's pretty cool. I'll be the first to admit, i'm totally ignorant about the gen aspect of this watch. I checked camille, but they only went up to 20 mm. I must be missing something...

_DC_ 218 Posted February 10, 2016 Yeah Camille Fournet only have up to 20mm in their "ready made" section but they can make any size. You have to go to "create your watch strap" section and some a custom strap from the ground up. If you need help with spec drop me a PM, I've ordered several custom straps from them including this 22mm for my 5370... Thanks for the info too, good to see a decently proportioned grand complication rep. It's not close to any particular gen reference but then none of the grand comp reps are (my 5970 is as close as I've found and that's discontinue now) but it's more about the overall feel. I like the fact it's thick too, a grand complication should be thick, the gens are!!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted February 10, 2016 PS: My 5370 is 15mm so don't worry about it ... (That's the rep strap btw) DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WatchaholicMallorca 2 Posted February 17, 2016 ^^ Mallorca is one of my favourite places at all time. My goal is to buy a place there one day soon. But I don't know where to begin looking lol Glad you like the pic buddy. Get the watch you'll never regret it believe me. Funny you should say that as I'm a real estate agent on the island :yoohoo: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WatchaholicMallorca 2 Posted February 17, 2016 Oh it's back available is it?! There'll be a few happy people about then!!! DC Yes but from what I can see Josh is the only person with it on their site. Only really looked on Toro, PC and few others. Received the QC pics last night after the dreadful CNY wait... Unfortunately for my bank balance I am already eying up another nautilus in steel, the RG aquanaut and the white gold calatrava... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted February 17, 2016 If Perfect Clones can get it then everyone can get it, not many TDs update their websites regularly but pretty much they can all get the same stuff!! Learn you will :yoda: DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DC Yeah, you've been MIA for a while now. Been waiting on new pieces, obviously got the 5370 out with KeNnY for modding which is my only new piece right now, then got a 5070r and 5131g incoming (the latter will be receiving some mods too) but until all those arrive I'm basically wearing the 5227g every day, and I can't keep posting it again and again lol!! Looking forward to the new pieces, I'm definitely moving towards the dressier Pateks now that there are some decent reps coming out, but I'll whip the 5711a out the box every now and again for a casual night out!

Godfathar 1 Posted February 21, 2016 ^^ didn't you have the 5131g before? Do you have a link for it? Would like to see how decent they made it to be. I know you wouldn't pull the trigger otherwise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted February 21, 2016 I had a 5131j that Ish sold me which he'd had for years, and although it was imperfect I do miss it, so decided to order the white gold version. It's still flawed but I think it will be stunning on a navy blue Camille Fournet strap with deployant clasp! Plus I plan to enhance it somewhat to be closer to gen! This is my "before and after" plan for it... So the hands should be white, that's easy enough, but the true character of the 5131 is the world map dial, that's what lets the rep down, so I plan on getting artistic with this one!!!
