5175 chiming
Hi Gordon, thanks for reading the post. Unfortunately did not get to hear the chiming sounds. Even when they played the second video on the 5157, Patek should have ended it with a sound clip of the minute repeater chiming. Earlier this year during a Patek event here in SoCal Mr. Pettinelli showed us a 5104P and we were treated to hearing the minute repeater.

Patek event
Thanks Patrick. It was nice seeing you at the event. There's so many details in the functions and movement complications on the 5175. Regards, ED-209
Question in regards to the Los Angeles event
I was wondering if anyone knows if this event in Los Angeles was sponsored by only one AD or was this the west coast 175th event for all ADs on the west coast?
