How you feel if the Patek Salon told you...
... that they will not put you on the waiting list. Need to rethink... Hagwe, kolosstt ...
I think it's ok, I prefer that sincerity than a pleasant lie.
Don't fool yourself, there is no such thing as a waiting list. If you have a good relation with your AD, then they will have you on mind, that's all. May I know which model you want? Vte
no probleem and get something else, besides it's not their fault
An AD I know has 200 people on the list for a 5711 blue After 20 they could have said the same to every customer cause when they only get 2 or 3 per year ... being nr 78 on the list is exactly they same as they tell you they don't want to put you on the l...
Yes, that was the mechanics...

It’s all going to be OK.
They were honest with you and that is GREAT. You can now deal with the information they gave you and proceed accordingly. Many times in life I have been left “hanging “ by people who could not tell me the truth. That’s terrible. The A.D. you are dealing w...
PP list
Most waiting lists are in the mind of the AD. He or she was being honest with you.
A waiting list that is never written or has an order...
... cause the mind is free. :/
It's the man that makes the watch and not the other way around...
Go be awesome and wear something else proudly! I would suggest suggest perhaps either a VC or a Lange.
True...
I went for a bottle of sparkling French and feels better. However, even the popular Rolex will put you on a long waiting list.
I use the salon purely for a nice cup of coffee whilst the wife is
Shopping, or to choose watches before I order from my AD or to fix a bracelet or strap. Apart from the nice calligraphy on the CoO I like my AD
