Mystery wrist shot amongst collectors! Ref. 5208P, 5531/1R, 5990, 5712, 5164 and 5524
The Tokyo Watch Art Grand Exhibition was just breathtaking…well planned and executed. The Japanese pieces on display were much more amazing than the pictures I saw, with new movements like changing date backward on GMT on the World Time piece, and the 5208P 😛😛😛 plus the antique pieces on display. I always have great fun and learning new things each time I meet Patek’s masters of arts like Anita Porcher, Marquetry and Guillochet masters. The only missing piece was a sit down meeting place with drinks. Guess we were spoiled from the Singapore one back in 2019.
Met up with various collectors I have known from over the years, and the first order of business was a wrist shot !
There is a special person in attendance. Who is he and what is he wearing ?
Answer below
Anita Porchet who made my 5531R

Very, very nice report CBB. Thank you so much.
I would have loved to have seen the exhibition but circumstances dont permit. Ive seen a few pictures of some of the Japanese pieces that are extremely beautiful but seeing the real thing is of course something completely different. I also see that Thierr...
You must have spent a wonderful time all together, what a nice occasion
Many thanks for sharing these photos here 🙏
Wait a minute….or two…repeaters 😉
I see one of the wrist is TS with the 5208…BUT, who is the one wearing the 5231R on bracelet?!? Wow!! First time seeing that reference on a bracelet.
🤔🤔🤔
Would like to know as well(like Dauster) if Patek made this with the bracelet or if it was ordered afterwards. 🙏🙏🙏 for the great pics!!
This 5531 with bracelet looks 👀 similar to the
5531/1R that was sold in an auction Previous post on the sale of the 5531/1R www.watchprosite.com
🙏🙏🙏
Must have missed that post but that was a “bargain” compared to recent estimates on the 5531R…especially since this was born with the bracelet and not added after.
Thank you Gordon!! 🙏
Looks like this was “born” with the bracelet based on the Patek tag and label “5531/1R” ...
Thanks for the report.
Truly a VVVVIP 😊to be with the esteemed Patek collectors. Awesome wrists shot!
Amazing report !
I had the pleasure of attending the Dubai & Singapore exhibitions .. Thank you for sharing very special pictures of yours and an epic group shot .
Thank you for the report and also for the photos!!
Interesting side discussion about the 5531/1R. I have not seen the original thread before. At least the present keeper of the watch seems to be standing right next to TS. At least it is being worn and all the parties involved seem happy which is the main ...
