Patek Philippe

. . . and if so, when? Cordially, Art

My understanding was that it was only available through the geneva boutique and has long sold out.....

and the lady I spoke to asked me to send her my contact details as she said that "the management" had not yet decided how to allocate the watches.

You are lucky. I was told there was no point in leaving any information as the watch would only be available for pick up at the geneva boutique.It would not be possible to send one to any other PP shop or boutique. If anyone knows any different I would lo... 

I don't know if they will. They just asked for my contact details.

You are lucky they even took your name. Julian

. . . Glashutte Original and Omega . . . I never get the feeling they're doing me a favor when I buy their product! Still, I have enormous respect for Patek, and the 5105, in my humble and inexperienced opinion, hits a lot of marks simultaneously . . . fa... 

I've told my Patek AD that he has a great job - people going to him to ask him to do them a favour by him allowing them to buy something from him!

I spoke to an AD for Patek and he told me for example that (dealer ref. edited). would get the items from Switzerland by having diplomats bring the items over to the U.S. Dealer ref. deleted - Suitbert

I would love to know the true story of the availability of this watch. There are so many rumours and inuendos. Julian

Thanks for that.Would love to know if anyone has bought one yet Julian

Yes, I bought both of them.

Huzhuzzi!! Some pictures would be highly appreciated, if you find the time :-) Best regards Suitbert

I don't have the watch yet, but already paid. Here is the link for the pictures [Link edited] April 30, 2004: ThePuristS.com will no longer allow links or references of any type or reason to sites which as a matter of blanket site policy do not allow link... 

When did you get yours? I am curious because after I sent them an e-mail enquiring about the status, I got an e-mail from them 3 days ago saying that the 5105s had not yet been "attributed" (sic).

They always reserve me one for all the limited ones.
