Collected my Cubitus 5822P on Monday.
I wasn’t at all convinced until I tried it on the wrist, all I can say is I’m very happy. Instantaneous day/date is a great new complication and the change from round to baguette diamond to denote platinum is a nice touch. I feel the strap version possibly wears slightly smaller than the bracelet versions despite the extra thickness and hence my choice.
I should add, I had the chance to handle the full current collection at the same time as looking at the Cubitus. Particularly I was able to compare it to the 5980G which I had on order, after the comparison I changed my order and picked up the Cubitus instead.
Cubitus flood
It seems that most of the Cubitus released to ADs are already on the grey market, at least looking at the 41 (FORTYONE) listings on a popular marketplace. Prices on the grey market for these models are, IMHO, just crazy (ref 5821/1AR offered at 310k euros...
Not necessarily
37/47 of those listings are just using the images from Patek's website. Of the remaining 7, I recognize two as using other people's photos. The most legitimate-looking ones flat-out say "Item needs to be procured".
Alas, this is very much expected. Am surprised anyone would be surprised.
JayZ and LeBron still haven't been seen wearing theirs, just wait and see when PP's possible marketing / sponsorship / tie-ins kicks in. Bigger size is great for certain sports athletes. Product rollouts are planned long in advance. But i bet 90% are trol...
I’m expecting Wahlberg is going to be the first noted to be wearing one…
specifically the platinum version.
Already?! But he already has the green dial with diamond bezel Nautilus…
(it’s actually sad that I know that level of detail about him.)😳
they dont value their money
peoplw who buy it at these prices must really not value their money and have misplaced priorities.
It is inevitable that unfavorable models will get back on the shelves
Most "sport" models of different brands, which were unaccessible and attempted to be sold with speculative prices on the secondary market, are back on the store's shelves. Patek was there 10 years ago. Cycles repeat!
How it is possible?
That there already are just released new model for sale on the secondary market with a huge premium? It has always been the same irrespective of the brand, When a new sought after model is launched new watches are for sale on the secondary market nearly b...
I would imagine a lot of the buyers are watch dealers
or organised groups. The types of groups unfortunately just buy anything they get offered in big bundles from dealers in London, Dubai, HK, Singapore etc and then sell to order elsewhere and the pieces (and money) move around worldwide. They just buy what...
People never learn
Just not long ago, there are folks that bought into Natilus and RO at hugely inflated prices in sec market and they have all gone down drastically. Some people just never learn.

Here’s a couple from collection day.
AD set it correctly but I then started playing with the instantaneous day/date jump. ...
