New member to my collection
« on: November 21, 2011, 03:06:32 PM »
i always wanted a tonneau shape watch in my collection.
that's when i first saw my boss wearing his Cartier Tortue Tourbillon Limited Edition


Recently look around online and this watch caught my eyes!
I bought this watch accidentally... cause really no planning to get it so soon...
This is my 3rd watch for the year, JLC hometimes in Febuary, Seiko Orange Monster in October... and this one on November.
It's not new watch... it's preloved piece... can't resist... just love it.


Booklet cover


it contained this....


The watch box.. the box really look like something.... lol


hmmmm... wait... it's empty???


Seller packed with care...  :thumbsup:

I don't have clear pic for this watch... my sis took all the unbox pics for me.

This is Patek Philippe Gondolo 5030G equipped with automatic calibre 315SC with geneva seal.
it is in white gold case & white gold tang buckle.

Clearer pic borrowed from internet.

Better lighting for the strap. the craftmanship for this strap is good.
It's same quality as original strap, comfortable and well finished.

they sent the package with Fedex Document envelope, packed with care.
Wide selection of leather, hide or skin. from basic calf to exotic leather.
fully customizeable width and length. Now custom strap no longer for PAM lover only.  ;D
Took 1 - 2 weeks for customized width and length, another 1 week for strap delivered to your door step.
