Mr. Paulsen (Director of Geneva Master Time, Patek’s distribution subsidiary for SE Asia, similar to Henri Stern in the US) with his 5164, Jon Lim (grandson to Anthony Lim, founder of Cortina Watch, a publicly listed company with stores throughout South East Asia) wearing his grandfather’s 5231J (talk about family tradition just like Patek), and I had on 5131R.
The blue dial is so great !
Rose bracelet with dark dial is very nice
Lucky my wife does not want this piece 🤣
Hi Patek fans, While visiting the Singapore ION Patek boutique run by Cortina, I ran into some heavy weight horological professionals wearing some lovely Patek watches.
Can you identify the pieces and these two people ?
I saw some new pieces and was very impressed. What do you think of them ?

I saw all three as well
and my wife is also not interested. However, I ordered the 5712 and will get it soon - lovely dial color and combo with the RG case and bracelet
Sincerely wish that you
get your X’mas gift before your holidays for being a good boy !
The 5712 R looks awesome. Still wondering if the bracelet will retrofit the previous strap model 5712R
Good question Bill ! My guess is that Patek likely designed this bracelet so that it
does not retrofit.
I have been worried with all these AP posts; good to see normal service is resumed ! LOL
5131 and 5231 still win for me, you both are very blessed to own these pieces.
The 5712 combination is my pick too!
I like the dial case combination. And I thought this dial colour is a more unique choice.
Cortina is one of the biggest AD in Singapore! Glad you had a chance to meet up with them. I hope you all had a good discussion!

I would prefer the 5990 out of the 3.
Although one could argue that they share very similar dial color as compared to the older version, I prefer this new dial color combo better personally coz it has a more subtle centered blue color tone if under certain angles. This also shows how Patek has perfected the making of dials leading to any possible color combination it wants to achieve.
Having said that, I like the 5811 most given the slightly more blueish dial color plus the extra 1mm larger in case size which fits better on my larger wrist.
