Patek Philippe

Tonight the PuristSPro Team joined Patek Philippe for a special private cocktail party showcasing rare timepieces from the Patek watch collection. This event was held at Bar 1912 at the famous Beverly Hills Hotel on Sunset Blvd. It was a treat to have Mr....  

I miss So Cal! Best, Nicolas.

And one piece that really attracted me was the Nautilus 5980 in stainless steel and rose gold. I knew it was introduced in 2013, but it was the first time that I've seen the blue gradient dial. It was visually striking. Regards, ED-209

The blue dial really pops out. Regards, ED-209

beautiful timepieces , bravo. best, geross

:) Regards, ED-209

you got my full attention :-) Thanks! Oliver

I am looking forward to the special complication. Interesting they displayed the discontinued Series 1 5270 rather than one of the new versions.

:) Hi Oliver and Conkers, thanks for checking out the teaser. I just posted up a video presentation. At the 6:48 and forward part of the video you can hear the chiming of the minute repeater of the 5104P. More pics of the grand comp coming up! Regards, ED... 

for sharing ED, I look forward to your update. Best M.

More pics and video to come. I also heard from Patek that there are some LE's coming out at Baselworld 2014.... Regards, ED-209

To start the evening Larry Pettinelli, President of Patek Philippe USA, provided the guests with his insights of the Patek brand along with his thoughts on what makes Patek timepieces so special. And as a treat for everyone, he brought along a Patek 5104P...  

Thanks for the pictures and video! Living vicariously through them!

Thanks for posting, I have an urge to spend some money! Rgds Roger

Thanks Roger, the one that really impressed me the most (other than the grand comp) was the Nautilus 5980 with the blue dial. Stunning. Which Patek are you considering? Regards, ED-209

I have three additions to my PP collection on my radar screen - all are proving difficult! 5131G and J and 5070P.

More pics coming up. ps - I really like the name snipermaverick. You should post some of your 'hardware' on our TimeOut forum :) Regards, ED-209

at all the AD's I see more and more pieces that were hard to get before. I hope Patek is not becoming a pure marketing show.

I think that it's great that more 'harder' pieces are now available at the AD's. Which ones have you seen? Regards, ED-209

Here are some photos that fellow moderator ED209 and I had the pleasure of taking at the event. Apologies for the quality of the photos, wasn't easy to take these photos in the dim lighting of Bar 1912 within the iconic The Beverly Hills Hotel. The always...  

which I never had the pleasure to handle. Something I have to work on ;-) The reference 5104 Grand Complication in platinum with a minute repeater and a perpetual calendar with a retrograde date indicates the date and the moon age, as well as the day of t... 

Rats. I didn't ask for a wrist shot. Should've gotten a wrist-shot when I was in Geneva when I was at the boutique. I personally love the 5074P. That's my grail watch.

Great photos Patrick, it was nice to see you there. Regards, ED-209

Always a pleasure to see you as well! Really enjoyed your video! And look at all that food!

The staff at Patek really knows how to throw a party. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable and relaxing. It was great chatting with Mr. Pettinelli and several of the local Patek AD's and representatives. This was geared as a cocktail party but we we...  

All that food! Hey, look at that picture frame for the Calatrava and 175 drinks. Those picture frames have the Calatrava cross!
