I agree with Radio Active....
I fully aggree with your sentiment.
I was one of the very lucky watch collectors that was able to buy a ref 5565 from the Salon in Geneva.
I contacted the Salon on the phone and then travelled to Geneva to put my case forward as a suitable recipient of such a rare timepiece
It was many months later that it was confirmed that a watch has been allotted to me and I travelled back to Geneva to collect it.
As with a lot on things in life you have to work hard and put in time and effort as I did for this watch, but it does annoy me to see speculators making a fast buck .

It looks like that the above photo is better than those from the press release.... do you agree?
I find it interesting that people are so crazy for limited Pateks that they
will pay so generously for a simple (agreed beautiful) watch like this when they could have a 3940 for the same or even a little less. The price of rarity comes from ones soul I guess. It is a beautiful watch and I am a stainless steel lover. But what wou...
What is the significance of this watch?
Sorry for asking what is likely to be an ignorant question but what is the significance of the 5565? It looks like a regular uncomplicated watch. The design is more sporty than most PP Calatrava watches and is that what makes it unusual? I am not sure I w...
