You are absolutely right. I didn't see this post, and Patek 3944 we cannot tolerate such statements. Which is a case of ban. So, just an gentle warning, but next time, you will be out.
I will edit the statement in question.
THE MOST IMPORTANT PATEK OF MODERN TIMES - The 5035 Annual Calendar......
It is very interesting...... I get snide remarks about the 5035 from many people here..... The 5035 wears too small, the 5035 is ugly....... the 5035 is so wrong..... Well..... let me tell you that this watch is the GREATEST HISTORICAL WATCH in modern tim...
I had three 5035...
...all bought new from authorized dealers. None could keep time precisely. I kept on sending them back for regulation and they were never adjusted to any less than 12 to 20 seconds fast a day or more. Patek eventually had to make changes to the movement a...
I have never had any problems with my 5035J - infact it just had a Patek service in Singapore....... first service since 1999 when sold in London.....
I of course never buy new........ I think you need to appreciate that the first is always difficult...... but who really cares..... The historical significance outweights a few seconds a day !!!!! The 5035 I own is perfect!!!! Perhaps I am so blessed !!!!...
What good is a watch that can’t keep time properly? Furthermore,
upon a visit to the factory, I was told privately that the movement had some”issues” that needed to be corrected. Nevertheless, they launched the watch and sold them. A lemon.
I have a feeling your statements are incorrect
No doubt the 5035 is an important watch historically and in fact the first PP I bought and i still own it. But the 5146 is nicer looking. Regarding your price estimate in 10 years time. Maybe but I don’t think it will be the case. To many made of this ref...
Honestly, despite my wide-open mind and my genuine, non-PC heart...I don't think I can really agree on (at least) the following two statements:
1) Disliking the 5035 is the "gravest mistake in history" (!) 2) "The Chinese" like yellow gold, and "the Chinese" have yet to discover non-steel watches (!!) ;-)
It's actually the 34th gravest, but let's not quibble ;-)
Enjoy the collection, while I'm out trying to find that mythical 5127R!
And LIVE from NEW YORK.... it’s SATURDAY NIGHT!
The 5035J was my first complicated Patek. No matter what, it just didn’t look good, the loom hands were less than appealing, the dial was overly crowded, and loom Roman numerals were dreadful. Sold it and got into more aesthetically pleasing pieces from P...
very distasteful
I don't mind you sharing your Patek only collection, but your generalized PC is extremely distasteful.=( You might be on the wrong forum if you're making generalized comments about other ethnic groups.... Moderators??
