i'd rather buy omegas if that was the policy of my PP ADs:::))) those ADs should not be supported by your money, honestly.

This isn’t anything to do with my AD, it was Patek themselves running the event, my AD was twisting arms as well to allow access! No Clients from multiple AD’s were allowed to handle either cloisonné WT or the 5520P. Strangely they offered to show me the 5370P.

And they had a 5204R which they were happy to show me. They possibly think I need more Chrono's.

They may of had some - I was interested in the pieces I hadn't seen before. They had a 5650G on display.

Museum travel time piece was lovely.

You know a lot about Rhone despite from Amsterdam

What is the name of your friend who was at Scotland event? Was is Peter Shore, Lord Voldemort or Bag lady. I guess it is Karl

Thank you for sharing the detail of the event. I am going to the local one in Oct. Wondering what will actually happen during the event after seeing the lovely WTs. Do they ask client there what their wish list would be or is it really just the selected few. Would love to have a remote chance to get a 5231 but was told very unlikely by the AD earlier this year. Thanks for your wisdom!
