Looks like the same case

I don't use it with my 5164 for instance, don't like to bend the rubber strap to much.
Apart from that, the case is beautiful and the watches are very well secured inside.

An evening with some of the novelties and some thoughts...

Last night I had the pleasure of spending the evening perusing the latest offerings by Patek in a beautiful outdoor setting in East Hampton, New York. Needless to say the entire evening was beautifully arranged and executed. The novelties from this year a...
Thanks!

It was arranged by an AD together with Patek Philippe USA. Wonderfully executed.
Indeed!

During my latest Patek event, I had so much fun with the other aficionados and friends that I only managed to try a few watches on and take some dirty pictures at the very end on the party. And by the way, no travel case here 😭
Ouch no personalized travel case! ;)

Yes just like how I have photo gaps of the meals... but post meal I had to handle some of the pieces present....
No travel case at all 😭
By: 1WatchMan : August 11th, 2018-00:09
Btw, are these new travel cases big enough? I'm asking because I have an older one, shiny dark brown, that I only use for thin watches.
I suspect same case...

Works perfectly well for me but I have tried with any large watch (>42mm)

Very interesting to hear your thoughts of what clearly was a fantastic evening. While the Nautilus QP is stunning (and on order!), I agree with your assessment of the 5204R. Just a showstopping piece. Thank you!
Wow
By: keks : August 10th, 2018-20:36
Very thrilled for you getting the qp! It is amazing! Looking forward to seeing it here soon!
Yup
By: keks : August 10th, 2018-20:37
London and Patek USA was there to impress. And fail they did not. Happy you agree on the 5204R... pure magic to me!
It wasn’t great
By: keks : August 10th, 2018-20:38
It was greater Yes the travel cases were much appreciated by all attendees!
Indeed effective..

But Basel is meant to be a show for media and retailers while these events are for potential end customers. But I do agree that for Patek to do “trunk show” events where customers can physically handle products that generally are difficult to experience i...
Well....

A budget question as the spread in price from high to low is quite substantial.... my two favs are the least and most pricey of the four.... will I buy any, well depends on what I deserve this year...
It really is...

If size is not an issue of course... by a cool looker for sure!!
Normally it's your AD who puts you in the list
By: 1WatchMan : August 27th, 2018-15:16
So it depends on your relationship with your AD and the number of "good clients" it has. I don't know if there is any rule or guidance from Patek itself.
Ad
By: keks : August 27th, 2018-23:19
You should let your AD know you would be interested in events like these. Generally AD arranges these things locally and coordinates with their Patek rep. I am sure your AD will send an invite your way next time if they only know you are interested!
