Hi Chris, I need to correct this as we are being read by customers all over the world (and by Patek itself). I can tell you that, as of today, allocations have NOT yet been decided in several markets.

For certain markets, we don't even know which watches will be available yet (let alone which customers will be assigned those watches by the local bosses). For other regions, as you correctly pointed out, allocations have already been made. Of course, I'm sure that further decisions are coming soon --- along with phone calls to the few, *incredibly* lucky collectors who have been selected for this year's amazing Rare Handcrafts! Hope this clears it up.
Let me also take this opportunity to post a link that Patek asked me to share earlier today, which might be of interest to many of you:

Finally, since we are speaking of Rare Handcrafts, here's an (unrelated) event with a different national Patek that this 2021 "School of Fish" (along with your old moderator) were attending tonight....
As a curiosity, while I didn't win any prizes, this VERY famous former SOCCER player did (I had no idea he was playing golf or even that he was in attendance tonight! ;-) Will some soccer fan recognize him?? He looks *exactly* the same as when he was playing, and his tee-shirt logo might give him away...
Cheers!
