She gets people interested in the watch because of her kindness and softness. Which is quite opposite of me (and perhaps lots of men in this hobby) because I see each of the Pateks in my collection as a triumph of sacrifice that cost me a pound of flesh and as such I protect it like a family heirloom that someone might want to steal. She celebrates and shares instead…
So groups of ladies take interest and get to know about the Patek because to them it’s just an unusual addition to the typical bracelet stack that they know well. Ladies regard the World Time as a curious interloper that they don’t understand… it’s not a Rolex or Cartier - it’s something weird but beautiful and they want to know about it. My wife was the sensation today with the ladies because every female and her sister understands usual suspects from Hermes, Cartier and Van Cleef… but what’s this pretty gold thing with the world map on it??
Best,
