Starting all over
I have been informed by my go-to AD that it will not be retailing PP anymore sometime this year. I reckon it is a casualty of AD consolidation by PP. I guess I have to start a relationship with another AD all over again if I were to continue to build my P...
Why not build on that relationship and focus on other brands? You seem to have done well in collecting PP and there’s
a lot of other interesting stuff out there. And I am sure your AD will appreciate the loyalty.
My local market is a lot more competitive. Small economy but with many large collectors.
One local AD I spoke with told me I need to restart with them all over. Buy a min amount before they would consider me for the harder to get pieces. A bit disappointing, but I acknowledge they have to take care of their existing core customers.
I know, that is unfortunately the major issue with changing AD. I'm hoping at least for the application pieces your record will help, especially within the same region (e.g., when you received your 5131, your name had to be approved above the AD level).
For instance, I bought my own 5131P at a new AD (a boutique...), as my very first purchase there, but obviously I had already bought quite a few watches in the same market and the people knew me. Just something to consider, also depending on your previous...
Great collection with some grail pieces !
You have definitely built up a very strong relationship with your AD ! Would love to have you post more about your other Patek watches !
Amazing quartet
That could be a perfect four if you ask me... well thought through collection!
Thank you all
There are still quite a few pieces that I like to get. Next step is to find a local AD ( the current one is overseas ) and restart the process. I just hope that I don’t have to start with the basic watches again.
WOW, that could be my perfect Patek quartet 👌🏻
I think that we're somehow aligned, as this is my "low cost" version 😜 ...
That's a beautifully curated Patek collection ...
That's a beautifully curated collection with fine references of Patek at its best. Dunt think you would have much difficulty developing a relationship with a local Singaporean AD. Continue to enjoy the journey!
