AD in milan/sils

Hi everyone, 


I have a business trip planned in a few weeks. I currently live in NYC but will be traveling to Milan and Sils Switzerland. 
Unfortunately I am one of the many silly people looking to get a steel sports watch...
Any recommendations of AD/boutiques for me to check out while I am in Europe?
Or is the situation for steel sports watches all the same all around the world?

thanks!

Picture of a 5004 that I tried on the other week... (would rather this than a steel sports watch but $$$)

Via Montenapoleone (Rolex, AP, Panerai, Omega, PP, VC etc.). Maybe you can find something interesting at the VC boutique which is run by Pisa. The PP boutique is just next door also run by Pisa. Best, V.

In Milano there are three Patek ADs within walking distance (from each other and from the center)..

I often visit Pisa and Verga even just for a coffee, where you'll find the most friendly and prepared folks. Pisa has now essentially colonized the entire upper portion of Via Verri, down until the corner with Montenapo, so that will be a terrific trip fo...

If you want to see some amazing independent brands (FP Journe, Urwerk, Kari V etc) stop by GMT Italia in Milan. It's only a 10 minute walk away from Pisa and the others mentioned above and you'll get to see some great pieces from independents

Beautiful 5004! [nt]
