Hi all,
I’ve been away from here for a few years, but now back with a bang….

My present to myself for completing my PhD! A Patek 5120/1G-001, solid white gold case and bracelet.

Congrats on your PhD! What field? Was the watch a gift in honor of completing the degree?

Political science.
Yep, bought it for myself as soon as I found out I’d passed.

Political science is no different to proctology.......both involve the study of arseholes and the shit they cause! 💩 😁

G'day D, good to see you now have time for important stuff (like watches).

Do you have any others you accumulated over the "missing years"?

Haha, sure, on the very generous PhD stipend that we get (roughly $30k per annum).
