5131...
No, he is still waiting for Godot.
Genuinely, as i have told him, i don't think he will get it. The AD took £7000 as a deposit to secure teh watch. Yet, as the AD pointed out, if the watch does not arrive, teh £7k can be used against the purchase of another Patek.
What a great game it is.
5131
Anyone received a 5131. Still waiting for mine. Promised for September, then October, then November!

That is what I call "salesmanship". Good luck to your brother-in-law...
With approx. 500 Patek AD world wide and only about 10 to receive the 5131 this year and next. That figures to 2% of the dealers may get the 5131. Of those 2 % what do you reasonably believe your brother-in-laws AD chances are firstly that the AD be alloc...
I am the only one
who does not find the 5131 very attractive in pics? I know it is an enamel dialed world-timer from Patek, which carries at lot of weight, but beyond that I have a hard time getting very excited. Of course that could change when I see it in the metal.
G, the deep blue for the Atlantic Ocean, the deep rich colors ..
of Eurpoe and Asia. But most of all the entire process of making the enamel dial is such a great story in itself. Each dial is a work of art. Any 5131 J or G is a real treasure, any collector that obtains one is blessed in my book.
