Patek Philippe

Patek Philippe, Hear me out. I think I have an idea/request that would benefit everyone of your customers and your company. Make all (excluding grand complications) dress watches water resistant enough to go swimming. The rating system for WR is known to ... 

I think throwing in a rubber strap should become the new standard. Do I want a fancy wooden box or a rubber strap? Btw I recently got my PP back from service and it came in a tiny leather pouch. I think it would be great if new watches just came in those....

speedy pro,even though I tried hard for three times,and no I don’t think it is necessary this days to have screwed crown and pushers in order to have a satisfying WR ,some companies already have done that but seems that even the hard core watch guys doesn...
