Patek Philippe

I always wondered about getting a tattoo. Is there anything I would want on my body forever (my lifetime)? This was one idea I am considering. The watch is real, the tattoo is fake, BTW. Hidden, personal, not controversial, small - prefer even smaller tha...  

I wouldn't do your placement (it that's what you mean), but if I was so inclined to have that tattoo I'd do it in a different area.

Maybee add a little "Tiffany & Co" as welll?

I love Patek. Adore them as a company. But at the end of the day, I hold no allegiance to Patek or any other manufacturer. Today all might be rosy and great. Tomorrow they decide to sell and change their business practice and start making pieces you don’t... 

real tattoo ? If yes, you earned my respect as the Patek moderator! I am NOT worthy 🥲

Do not do it, as a hardcode tattoo'ed man I know what it means to have something on you body that is forever. If your opinions or taste changes, you will regret this... what if: - Patek sells out to Swatch - Patek keeps on bringing out 5711 watches and lo... 

I think it is called slavery, don’t do it

However, my "compromise" has been this anniversary bracelet for the past 6 years (it was sent as a 2015 Christmas gift!).....a very simple accessory, and also the only one I *never* take off! Something along these lines could be worth thinking about Cheer...  

Is PP paying you to be branded?

imagine wearing another watch with the wrong logo...seriously I would never do it even if they gift me 10 nautilus + 10 perpetual calendars

I’ll tattoo a logo on my forehead. Till then- no.

I really like watches but I love my family and friends only thing I really own is my body not interested in renting it out for statements

Not a chance in hell I’m going to get a tattoo of any brand, period. Branding has gone completely over the top nowadays. I even refuse to wear heavily branded clothing. I just want good quality stuff. I don’t need to be a walking advertisement for anyone....

but in my view, no to a PP tattoo. It has to be something that you truly see yourself feeling proud of for scores to come. I would certainly avoid any branding like the plague, even if you were sponsored handsomely for it (I am sure even the Sterns would ... 

Taken in the morning light after Christmas.

and in my favourite metal (short of P of course!)!

Some here will recall a Paneristi who had the Panerai logo tattoo done. This was maybe 15 or so years ago. My recollection was the logo was less about the brand and all about the how the watches and Paneristi had brought new friendships and helped through... 

I am not sure where you live or who your social circles are, but the calatrava cross can be mistaken for something else. I know, screw what other people think. Also I know what the calatrava cross means, but in certain places as a tatoo it will give off a... 

Aim high. Get another Patek Philippe watch. Next time, make it a Perpetual Calendar.

I'm going to let this wear off and see if I really want another one. If I do, it will also be temporary. The idea of unwanted permanence, changing or mistaken meanings, lack of true personal significance, have always prevented me from getting a tattoo. It...
