Good to see the watch world is finally holding these gatherings.  Looking to seeing more as the Covid19 hesitancy wanes and collectors come out in force…let the watch collecting season begin anew!!

Dear all, Recently I attended a watch event and saw some amazing pieces, especially for Pateks !

So many watches were there that this occasion felt like an auction review ! I was too busy to eat much but was totally full from viewing and inspecting so many watches. This gathering was held at the classy and elegant Gentry Club, a private members club ...  

Wow!

Yes, I was very PLEASANTLY surprised by the minute repeater !

A big +1! ;-)

Yes, hopefully larger gatherings as such can continue to be held !

Fingers crossed for this trend happening in other parts of the world soon.

Glad to find out that you found two pieces you like !

That blue enamel dial of the 5370P is great in the metal !

ummm 🤔... rare

handcrafts on a ding ding ding ? 🧐?? I might lose all my arms and legs 🦵🦵 organs 🤣

Nope, those already exist, for instance with the 5531R...more "humbly," I was really thinking of a 5089R, given that all iterations of this specific reference so far have been in G gold...

 
 By: FabR : July 20th, 2021-19:29
I would love to see that one day (or also a 5177R, a RH reference that seems to be slowly taking over), so it certainly won't hurt to throw the idea around next time I get a chance! ;-) Cheers.

Looks like a wonderful gathering.

Isn’t watch box just a subsidiary of Govberg jewelers?

Yes, everyone there enjoyed attending such a gathering ! Been cooped up too long !

 
 By: GLau : July 19th, 2021-14:20
As I understand, Watchbox is partly owned by Govberg.

Great event!

Hopefully more of these horological events can be organized.

That blue enamel dial, wow. And the rest of the watch I guess is not bad either !

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : July 18th, 2021-16:31
There were several pretty heavy hitters in terms of horology there. Your wife was right to be cautious and to police your enthusiasm ! 😂

Yes,Jay, fortunate that my wife was there to watch me like a hawk ! Otherwise,

I think you need the “ding ding ding” 😄

Thanks for sharing, Gordon.

The 5208R PCC MR is certainly the grail of the gathering. But 5370P blue enamel dial is probably the relatively “reachable” target…..

You are welcome Henry ! Other than “reachability” , the

5208R definitely qualifies as a seldom seen grail/whale !
