The more I see, the more I understand the three monkeys
They say "ho my god" "no way" "What have they done!"
For me Patek is understated, complication under a simple appearance and timeless elegance; this is not what I have seen on the novelties till now. I am a bit shocked honestly. Please Philippe come back...
Don't get me wrong Oliver, this is not free bashing of a fantastic brand, I do love Patek and dream of some, but let's see how people will react in the following days, this won't be everyones taste, though I believe some will like the change.

Patek Philippe at Baselworld 2014 … (teaser & more)
... is coming soon and I am aware quite a few of you are waiting for the novelties impatiently. Which novelties will we see in the Aquanaut , Calatrava , Complications , Golden Elipse , Gondolo , Grand Complications , Nautilus and Twenty ~ 4 Collection? W...
The longer we wait, better it is
I'm warming up and am already eager to see your pictures! Cheers, Mark
I like such mysterious trailers
The more I wait, the more exciting! :) Looking forward to next week Oliver! Cheers Robin
Businessmen are quite often frequent traveller´s …
… or something even “worse” (Senator, HON ...) :-) … … and to be/look sporty is almost a must today, isn´t it? ...
Some photos doing the rounds.
Of a steel 5960 white face with bracelet, of course it may be photoshop, but whether it is or not, it doesn't feel very Patek like at all!!
Some people had a lot of work before …
… and I can imagine they are also quite impatient until they can finally present the outcome to us. ...
Sleep well my friend and have nice dreams ...
but don´t blame anybody afterwards if it is too late ... especially for you :-) Cheers, Oliver
Well, last time there was something for me, I put my name on the list, before anybodyelse.
And still waiting... It was in 2009... Best, Nicolas zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ...
... and still waiting...
.... that 5070P got really stuck in your throat. Look at the bright side, it got you to hunt down, for a while and a difficult hunt... for the 5070G. Can you imagine what it would have been for a 5070P?
Sorry, but when you are the first on the list, normally, you are served.
I don't have the pretention to be the first served, I can wait one year, or two. but I passed on several TRUE watches I hunted for a while to get this one. Lesson learned. I thought that only Panerai did that, since, I know that they are not alone. Best, ...
No Nico, imagine if that was true...
... all the dealers and flippers would be served 1st and they would slash us with premiums. To be fair, its the good customers and loyal collectors that should be served 1st. They propose their new pieces to them 1st. No need for them even to call or put ...
Thierry Stern already gave an answer …
… to a collector at the “KunstWerk Uhr” exhibition in Munich, last autumn. The gentleman wanted an insight or at least a hint about the big novelties in 2014. After a thought Thierry said: “We will present something that nobody expects … and we will do it...
i saw it already...
... its quite similar. The case is the same, and the dial is not as daring, but quite daring.
One of the new models is awful!
And i'm referring to the other one... PP is turning to the dark side as AP, every day one more sporty watch despite what did her huge success (classic watch and clean dial). pecunia non olet.
We are coming closer and now it’s up to you to choose …
… if you finally want to see something tomorrow and if you are prepared for what you will see … :-) I already arrived in Basel today and therefore I will have limited access to the internet. Tomorrow is the official press conference and some time for the ...
Call me "old school" ...
or whatever you want, but there still is an embargo from PP and I will stick to it. Some need to be first, even when they break the rules ... - not me.
Oups
My mistake, these Guys seem serious and I thought that was somehow official as a starter for more news today. Looking forward to your post with some real pictures. Best, Stan
Would rather see
Pictures and details from you instead of a series of jumbled poorly photographed releases.. The wait will be worth it ;) Best, Colton

agree with you
too early to jugde when the Naulitus was created, this watch has been considered as ugly. so so so
Let's wait 35 days more
Hi all, having lurked for some time waiting for 175th anniversary. After it was down the whole morning, the / owners section is now live. I'd not comment all PP's releases at Basel, just curious to see real pics from Oliver (thanks for your great job). M...
Finally I am allowed to show you …
… the first two novelties: Stay tuned for more ... step by step I will start with some "quick & dirty" live pictures … as soon as possible, during a very busy show, a tight schedule and an incredible slow internet connection. Thanks for following so f...
The last statement gives me some hope :)
Those two are not my cup of tea, let's say they are daring, and I expect from Patek more conservatism (I would say timeless classic) :) An I wish you a good time out there, it's quite a lot of coverage work! Gute Nacht ;) François
