I wouldn’t let the experience with a specific AD/boutique deter you from acquiring a Patek...but either changing AD or buying a Vacheron (if you like it better) can be good options😉
All round watches, and peace one could be a Cartier Santos.
I see no skeleton, so peace two could be a Girard Perregaux Laureato Skeleton.
Maybe a taste related subject, a thin watch, and recognizable as the mighty Bulgari Octo Finissimo in titanium. That was peace three. Arabic or indices, it’s on you.
By the way, great watch winder, just the winder i go to buy. Two easy turn knobs, that is better than a lcd with a complex menu.
