never say no to a nice Patek!
I got my 5235 last year in March, a little bit earlier I should get it, because the person who was in front of the list doesn´t want it at that time. This watch is so great and I thought, I would not buy any other watch for the next time. On October 14th I saw the 175th Collection and I called "my" dealer. As early bird I got an assurance for the Worldtimer Moon 5575. Don`t sell Patek, collect them and enjoy!

5235G ... to be or not to be...
hi all, so i got a call today that the watch was here ... mixed feelings really, as i still didn't know if i really wanted it ... anyway, picked it up and it was, of course, double sealed ... had to pass a dealer i sometimes get stuff from and he offered ...
congrats Kam !! A very wise decision !! Did you read...
what I wrote to you on your earlier post on the 5235? Gordon
Pp regulator watch
To be honest its growing on me in likeness. , its a beauty. I believe its also got the 240 selfwinding movement which a joy on the wrist does not have a very high vph but just right. Congratulations. Cheers Geross
Definitely the right choice!
The smile on your face and the joy you have is worth much more than the profit you could have made :) Good call and congrats! :) Cheers Robin
Congrats....
I really like this watch for many reasons No regrets at all Enjoy please T

Not Happy ...
in less than 2 weeks .... sucks for a company like patek to ship garbage like this ... all the blue is literally flaking off the strap ... its just rubbish !! ...
Let me ask you some questions ...
if you don´t mind. First: Yes, it looks seriously bad on the pictures shown. Questions: Who placed the order from whom? Did you get it from Patek Philippe directly or was an AD or another party involved? Oliver
AD...
have another piece from same AD - no issues ... i have several pateks and not one has a strap that shows anything close to this level of wear even after years ... not sure it is the dye that is reacting with the leather will take it to the service centre ...
I am not surprised about your reply ...
because I heard some unfortunate stories with (specific ones, not in general) ADs involved before. I won´t go in too much detail here, because it won´t be helpfull for you anyway. I would not accept a strap like this from my AD and I would expect them to ...
I have to give Patek a break here as they did not
make the strap and there was really no way to know of the problem until it was worn. From your pictures, the edges appear to be the problem cracking and peeling. I have experienced this a couple of times in the past and has to do with the dressing used on...
I would add this.....
.....with any manufacturer, there will sometimes be issues and problems. What separates the good from the bad is how those problems are addressed.
2 months
good news is that they will replace it Bad news is that it will take 2 months.. Oddly enough, they didn't look surprised so I guess it's an ongoing issue ...
Why 2 months just to change a strap??? That's crazy. I wouldn't accept that
For a brand new watch??? Surely they can get a new strapped shipped to anywhere in the world from Switzerland within a few days.
I had the same issue with my 5296R a few years ago
Cancel Help improve Google Translate It was solved quite quickly. My AD apoligised on b ehalf of Patek and the new strap is still beautiful .
It was solved quite quickly.
My AD apoligised on behalf of Patek and the new strap is still beautifull.
agreed
that is just too long. you can order a strap in the USA and ship it within 5 to 7 days.
