Guess where I am...

But note that « heaven » will be considered as a subjective appreciation, not a place 😉

I had the chance to try on some real contenders for my next watch. What do you think?
















Of course I was wearing my 5712





And as you guessed, it is the Geneva Salon




Thanks for reading

That little movement in that big case has been keeping me away from “Modern Patek “ in general. I am a “Vintage” guy. The older watches just make more sense to me.

Funny indeed Tyo...

and I see you were wearing your Rouge (we share some tastes here). So, what did you think about the 5230G Worldtime?

To be honest the 5110P is most likely (95%) my next piece. But the 5230G is growing on me after this trial.

It’s mostly the fear of buying an « old » watch where I am not sure of its history, versus a new watch... unless I find a nice 5110P from a Purist ...

I was in exactly the same boat a few months ago.

The 5230G won me over. My happiness with the piece has only grown since.

Oops, had I known a month ago, I would have certainly stopped by given the interesting Patek selection on your website!

(I first noticed it as your background piece is actually a big favorite of my own small collection Good luck, and hopefully next time! ;-)

It was a message to k2luxury who was soliciting visits to their store.

Congratulations! I was fortunate to go there in 2016. Couldn’t afford a watch, but I did buy a beautiful pair of white gold cuff links! I went through the Patek Museum twice. One day, I just walked through it on my own for a couple of hours. The next day,... 

I've been lucky enough to be invited to the factory (and museum) visit after buying my first Patek.

I believe it's all a matter of relationship with your Salon (or AD). Kindly ask them, reminding them that you're a true Purist, collecting vintage timepieces.

I agree, is not a bad piece of advice at all

I know people invited that didn't own any Patek, but maybe the AD/Salon saw some potential. It's also a good way to show Patek to people that are starting to discover high end watches.

Thanks! [nt]

Living in France makes it easier ;-)

Each is a good choice ! Perhaps they are your ...

next watches ! Did the Salon have the 5712 available for you ?

Perhaps... perhaps, perhaps.

I own the 5712 on the picture so I haven’t asked about this one to the Salon.
