Patek Philippe

My Experience in Geneva

 

I was with my family in Switzerland couldn't wait to visit PP in Geneva it was the most fun PP treated us like royalty after I said I want to purchase a Deployment clasp for my 5079J, it was would you care for an Espresso anything for the kids couldn't of been nicer and more accommondating.  Later I said I would like to add to my collection a 5078P,  they said they would get back to me and they did about 3 months later with many emails going back and forth, my order was placed.  About 16 months later I received an email my 5078P was ready for delivery couldn't believe it.
The watch arrived in a wooden crate 3ft by 3ft with long  nails holding the crate together.  Had to have a drink with hammer in hand opened my wooden crate (a great pack job) there it was my new 5078P a really memorial experience.  Since purchasing my 5078P I have been invited to a couple of PP's get together in Geneva, meeting the Stern's and management haven't been able to make the trip as of yet.  But hope to in the near future.  For now I am enjoying all my watch collecting.
ps  Patek Philippe is a great company and I love there watches.
