 By: socal to az : June 17th, 2022-14:47
Iโ€™m on the way back from a hosted trip to Geneva with a group of great guys by my AD. We were the first group to go from The US to Geneva since the new PP6 building opened and the Covid restrictions were lifted. This was the most epic trip Iโ€™ve ever been ...  

Amazing!

Impressed. Good you respected the brand itโ€™s values. Good you excuse for pushing your AD for a watch that is almost impossible to get. Green dials are sweet, i love them too. I have one in order by an AD, is also a Patek Philippe AD albeit he have more th...

I was fortunate when my AD invited me to the PP NYC offices and similarly got to see and try on many timepieces. This trip is a whole another level. Thank you so much for taking the time to post this and sharing with us what you could share.
