Thanks for letting us know Emmanuel !
They are collectible IMO. Perhaps Patek should restart this type of gifts ?
Great post Emmanuel ! Hmmm, those look very familiar... from my Livingroom back in the day. Henri did so very much for PP, and horology, especially during the very challenging times.
It's been very, very easy times during the past 10 or so years. Even backpackers flipped for profit (sadly). As we return to more challenging times, it'll be interesting to see how some companies adapt / change. The smart companies knew the bubble would p...
Thank you!
You're the one who gave me the idea to look for the complete series! Best, Emmanuel
Thanks for letting us know, Emmanuel.
Regrettably I acquired my first PP in 2011….. Best, Henry
PP could and maybe should do something
similar in the future… It was interesting for me to discover that the 25-21 REC was the one-before-last. Best, Emmanuel
Strange, I cannot recall seeing these cards and I have nearly every number from the start
Maybe they did not include it with all copies?
Strange indeed, and I’m unfortunately
unable to explain why you didn’t get the cards. If you have Volume II, number 9, you can maybe check p. 54 and see if the lithograph is announced on the top left of the page. If yes, I really dont understand why you didn’t get the subscription card… Best,...
Found the copy and you are absolutely correct!
Although the announcement was made in such a fine minuscule print that I did completely miss it. Did just see it now. Dang, it would have paid off to have paid more attention some twenty years ago, reading the issues when new.
Amazing lithographs for sure! Thanks for sharing Emmanuel 🙏
I’m working on a kind of similar project now, something as beautiful and based on my personal collection. I’ll share it here in due time I promise 😉
What you're announcing
sounds very exciting, dear Mike: I can't wait to see it! 🌼 Best, Emmanuel
