Patek Philippe

After almost 7 years on the list and way more purchases than my better half expected, I finally got the watch I have lusted after for such a long time. It’s everything I expected and then some. The journey to this day has, at times, been frustrating but l...  

It's a phenomenal piece, and the wait and 'hunt' mostly makes the procurement even more meaningful and enjoyable - I should know given how many years it took me to acquire each of the watches I had been pursuing. Likewise, welcome to posting here agian! C... 

I get antsy if I have to wait 7 days for my next one 😉 Congrats on your grail!

I don’t think I could wait that long for a new piece. Having said that your watch is beautiful and your patience is admirable. Congratulations !!!

congratulating britishone in his long wait and willingness to build the relationship?

Perhaps you can share a bit of your Patek collection journey to get to this point. Regardless, this is a grail piece to be enjoyed. And, I love those hats too! Are they equally hard to get?

Actually my AD has been great for gifts. Hats, wallets, ties, bags, pens etc. it’s been easier to get that stuff than some of the watches. And it’s a good idea to share some of my journey, So I will do that in a separate post.

It helps to manage some people’s expectations, I feel.

Patience pays off. Enjoy the beauty.
