As we are talking about new Polaris: Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris Perpetual Calendar.

I don't see much value here, not to beat the drum about price too much. A fairly pedestrian movement viewed from the back -- a solid caseback would have been better, or much better yet, an upgraded movement at this price. JLC could also have made a more s

Can a previous generation 5712/1a be fitted with the new deployant clasp (2-button retracting/locking mechanism & expandable bracelet links)

Greetings! My 2018 Patek 5712/1A has the previous generation clasp which is sometimes challenging for me to open - and has proven impossible for my wife to open. Has anyone asked their AD if they could upgrade to the new locking mechanism on their previou

I buy my Patek mostly from an AD and my AD never hinted to bundle or buy other brands to get a Patek. It's a good thing my taste spans across their model lines and I felt ecstatic receiving my 5270P just the same way I received my 5740. I can imagine my A

I think it makes sense. There’s a finite amount of pieces and do you allocate to someone who has purchases several watches or no watches. I don’t feel someone has a “right” to buy an aquanaut or nautilus or whatever — so long as there’s not some unlawful

As Patekova wrote above, he believes that "Being required to build a relationship by buying presumably lesser desired Pateks before getting the more highly desired ones, is not considered bundling. Nor apparently is it discouraged. It is also understandab

Because it seems there is sanctioned “blackmail” if it’s Patek’s own products of buying a Calatrava, complications, etc. to get an aquanaut or nautilus. I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with that too—it’s just the word they use. And I can see why
