What age did you buy your 1st Patek?

[stockjock1975]

Hello everyone here at TRF! Within the last month I finally pulled the trigger and purchased my first Patek Philippe. It is a beautiful yellow gold Calatrava on a brown crock strap. I absolutely LOVE it and will be posting a few pics on line here soon. This piece has always been my grail and I was very pleased to be able to have purchased it at the age of 42. Which brings me to my question to all of you PP owners........how old were you when you acquired your first Patek?

I know a first Rolex tends to be purchased at a younger age due to relative affordability compared to PP. But I expect to find that Patek to be purchased later in ones life either due to the significant financial commitment that PP requires, or simply due to the style. But perhaps I am mistaken.

In anycase, please take a minute to reply to this message and let me know how old you were when you got your first Patek. Thanks!
