Wow. I am speechless.
What a thread...what a post.

I must add however, that my favorite watch in fact is a Patek rep.
The MBK Nautilus is worthy of comparison to the gen 3700/3800
jumbo, albeit, not even close to 1.1 to the gen. Personally I would never spend 25,000 for the current 5711, but I am such a fan of this Patek model, that wearing the rep is worth it for me.

Additionally, one of my first rep purchases years ago was the original offering of any rep Pam...that being the base 112. It is quite simply...simple. Elegant dial and beautiful AR. A classic watch.

Your eloquence is much appreciated.
