Patek prices climbed too much over past 2 years..even Asia is slowing down
and ADs and grays have good amount of inventory, and they are not moving. even new ones like 5170s etc are available. even older models lile 5070s and 5970s are now on the market, sealed and some unnamed.
we Chinese are not stupid 
-... we know when prices are too high and overdone. VC which was relatively underpriced versus Pateks are moving and low inventory levels.
best,

Sign of the times???????????
Yesterday, I spent a very pleasant day in London with a couple of friends visiting various watch shops. Including both vintage and new watches. Included in our browsing was several Patek Philippe AD's and I have to say that for the first time ever i saw a...
Difficult times in Europe and US
Thus the retailers have some inventory. I guss the situation is not the same in FE. Best, Kari
Than Patek should supply other dealers !!!!
My dealer has 5 Patek watches in stock.... FIVE! (And believe me, we're not talking about a small dealer) He's screaming for more pieces. If this is correct Tony, Patek should give more pieces to some dealers and less to others

An example, he's a dealer who got 1 5070P and 2 5970 P .... I know several dealers who did not get a 5070P and if they got a 5970P , it was only one piece These pieces are pieces you get in your shop when you do good business. He also sold the ultra compl...
The party can't last forever.
The economy stinks in so many parts of the world, so really, this comes as no surprise at all and I would suspect it to continue for a while. Adding to the problem has been a hint of arrogance instead of gratitude that has found its way into the high-end ...
I am still on strike: NO new Patek for me anymore!
Let us see what will happen in the near future, but the current prices are for people who can say: "How lovely! I buy it!" ... and nothing else. I wonder how many are left who can do so. Those who know the market and have cash to spare will only buy the "...
Not the case here in paradise.
As far as Pateks go, there hasn't been a slow down in the market. Although there aren't many dealers here, the influx of tourists from China has been keeping the high-end Patek market alive. And by the end of year, Tiffany, at the Ala Moana store will hav...
OTOH....
this may be temporary because there is saturation of the market... and that the Patek market is really not affected by the 'economy' because there will always be a segment/market (even half percent of the richest ) that will buy/desire a Patek... and that...

In this part of the world. Nowadays I am able to spot 5712g, 5711/1a in white face, 5980, 5167r in the AD. I would like to believe that there is cautious optimism by the consumers because of the lingering issues in Europe and the U.S.
