5959 is certainly the most difficult PP to get....

Hi,

5959 has been on the Patek Philippe catalog for two to three years now. If an AD doesn't know it he may not be an AD.

This watch is made in very limited quantities (AFAIK production is limited to ten pieces a year).

If you hope to buy one yes the best way is probably to call the Patek Philippe showrooms in Geneva.

You may prepare a list of all your Patek Philippe watches with serial numbers and be open to write a letter of application to Mr Stern.

Some find this unacceptable. I have to admit that I find this procedure very smart and responsible if the Patek Philippe management wants to avoid speculation on Patek Philippe hot models as much as possible.

It is definitely a thin line to be in if you want to find the perfect balance between the promotion of the watches you sell (and have to sell to make the company profitable and keep it alive) and the development of a strong base of long term fans that are not disgusted by the speculators.

By the way I was surprised to read that you own two 5070 G!  If that's the case you should offer to exchange one against a rose gold version!  Just an opinion.

Cheers
