Guess where I am...
But note that « heaven » will be considered as a subjective appreciation, not a place 😉 I had the chance to try on some real contenders for my next watch. What do you think? Of course I was wearing my 5712 And as you guessed, it is the Geneva Salon Thanks...
Yes!!!
That little movement in that big case has been keeping me away from “Modern Patek “ in general. I am a “Vintage” guy. The older watches just make more sense to me.
Funny indeed Tyo...
and I see you were wearing your Rouge (we share some tastes here). So, what did you think about the 5230G Worldtime?
To be honest the 5110P is most likely (95%) my next piece. But the 5230G is growing on me after this trial.
It’s mostly the fear of buying an « old » watch where I am not sure of its history, versus a new watch... unless I find a nice 5110P from a Purist ...
I was in exactly the same boat a few months ago.
The 5230G won me over. My happiness with the piece has only grown since.
Oops, had I known a month ago, I would have certainly stopped by given the interesting Patek selection on your website!
(I first noticed it as your background piece is actually a big favorite of my own small collection Good luck, and hopefully next time! ;-)

The Geneva Salon!
Congratulations! I was fortunate to go there in 2016. Couldn’t afford a watch, but I did buy a beautiful pair of white gold cuff links! I went through the Patek Museum twice. One day, I just walked through it on my own for a couple of hours. The next day,...
I've been lucky enough to be invited to the factory (and museum) visit after buying my first Patek.
I believe it's all a matter of relationship with your Salon (or AD). Kindly ask them, reminding them that you're a true Purist, collecting vintage timepieces.
I agree, is not a bad piece of advice at all
I know people invited that didn't own any Patek, but maybe the AD/Salon saw some potential. It's also a good way to show Patek to people that are starting to discover high end watches.
When i go back to Switzerland ill go there definitely.
Your a blessed man to go there. Cheers, thanks for posting. Geross.
Each is a good choice ! Perhaps they are your ...
next watches ! Did the Salon have the 5712 available for you ?
Perhaps... perhaps, perhaps.
I own the 5712 on the picture so I haven’t asked about this one to the Salon.
