Patek Philippe 5531R World Time Minute Repeater Special Report
Moderator Patrick_y shares the details of the new Patek Philippe 5531R model. A special WorldTime Minute Repeater that Patek Philippe has made for their special 2017 Grand Exhibition event in New York City. Patek Philippe hosted an explanatory interview o...
Dream made into reality!
We will see these models for now. And hopefully another in the coming years.
Hi Patrick, many thanks for this report ! I like the,,,
"Night" dial better because it has more colors which make the dial more vibrant , and the yellowish color matches the rose gold case very well ! Cheers, Gordon
I don't think there are a lot of night ones left...
Better move quick Gordon! There were only five to begin with.
I also like the "Night"dial better as well! The colors on the "Night" dial goes well with the RG case of the watch!
I don't think I will be given an allocation but I did ask my AD for one. Fingers crossed!!!
If only HK meant "Hell's Kitchen" instead of "Hong Kong."
In New York City, HK means Hell's Kitchen, a district on the Western side of Manhattan. They're definitely targeting allocation for these pieces for people who are citizens or residents of the USA. But I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!
Don't worry sure it will be out in Baselworld 2018 as a normal
Application piece in platinum and with the enamel a globe or map....
Wished I was in a position to worry...
Not currently in the position with the bank account to acquire a piece like this... If I did, the accountant would call the men in white coats to put me in a straight-jacket.
Patrick, given that I am an enamel dial lover, I will gladly...
... let other Patek fans collect this MR, especially given the price tag! LOL !
Great reading about the special adaptation feature
I didn't see those pictures and it is nice you could tell us a little about what the issue is and how it was solved. As I said, I love that case and I think I would take a Day dial (even if the Night one is a little more "romantic"). A fantastic Minute Re...
Thank you Mark for reading and commenting!
From the first time I met him in 2010/2011, Thierry Stern has always been generous and well humored. You can tell when someone is genuine by the speed of their humor, and Thierry really reacts very humorously by instinct. I like the case too. The hobnail ...
I wished you were here too...
I've now missed you twice! We must be really good at avoiding each other! (joking)
Great report. Just wow. 2 usefull complications. This reaffirms the USA is stil a world power.
And Patek is a super brand in watches. Cheers. Very good report. Geross.
Patek Philippe only does this for special nuclear power countries...
It's called Patek Philip-plomacy diplomacy. It's right up there with Patek-nomics economics.
Hi Patrick, now that I have seen both versions at the exhibition, my preference now is...
changed to the day time version because in the metal, the enamel dial really "sings" ! The night time version is nice but the orange is over-powering in the metal. Hence, photos never tell the full story ! Cheers, Gordon

Had a great time and got to hang out with 2 PuristS...
Masterpiece and KC_HK ! My favorite room naturally was the rare handcrafts room ! These unique pieces are simply AMAZING !
Sounds good!
Hanging out with other like minded friends is always a special treat. Even moreso if they're PuristS. Sounds like you had a good time!
