Though Coombs has had other Pateks in his collection (most notably a green 5711), this watch marked a step forward in his collecting journey. "This was my first dive into formal link Patek. My first grand complication, my first link non-sport watch, just outside of my comfort link zone completely," he says. "One of my friends who collects, he goes, 'Oh, finally you're getting into big boy watches.'"
