Thank you for your replies. The watch has not reached me yet and if not genuine I will have comeback.
You can hardly be surprised Oliver if somebody with little expertise does not write much. I prefer to read what more informed people have to say. This message has been edited by Bariman on 2013-04-20 09:18:39
Genuine Patek?
I have just parted with hard earned cash for a vintage Patek Calatrava with paperwork from recent service, original box etc . How can I find out if it is genuine? I have a reference number (2557). Is the movement number exclusive to the specific watch or ...
