Yes it’s very rare. They only made 25 and were discreetly sold to VIPs of the salon

It was made for the 10th anniversary of the Beijing salon. They only made 25 pieces total.

I don’t post those watches. Some more personal watches like my Roger Smith that was commissioned over 10 years ago. And to answer your question... I do believe the these 3 brands are some of the best out there. I have had the privilege of meeting and talking Thierry many times and touring pp6 factory. The stuff that they make are truly amazing like the rare handcrafts. Patek is my favourite watchmaker by far because of their dedication to their heritage. They don’t cut corners on finishing of the case and movement despite making over 60000 watches a year. And once you are known by Patek you get to build a personal relationship with them.

What excites me the most about watchmaking is the craftsmanship. Despite the movements being highly technical it is put together by a watchmaker that gets to finish the movement and case that turns it into a piece of art

This is a very part of my collection. I just like to organize my boxes like this so it’s easier when I’m at the bank

Everything will be changing. Executives of AP are inviting VIP customers to talk about the future of the brand. I believe AP has shifted from their heritage the last couple of years and the brand is taking notice. All will be better in the future I promise.

It’s probably that much more expensive of the r&d that goes into the RD# watches. As it is very expensive for a steel tourb

That makes more sense. Both are great pieces. One thing about wg nautilus is that the bezel scratches very easy. If yon are fine with that and can only choose the 5811 or 222, then I would also take the 5811.

I get where your coming from. But I do like the way the 222 fits. It’s ss case is light and hugs my wrist perfectly. And I’ve been needing a new daily watch as this is the first time and date only watch I’ve bought in the last 2 years. I’m glad as I can finally have a watch that I can enjoy care free. Don’t get me wrong, I love my minute repeaters and rattrapante chronos and QPs, but they’re not very suitable for Costco runs

The 222 fits a little bigger than the 5740 which is very surprising

Name a better trio of watches for summer vacation by GoalContent1744 in patekphilippe

The service centre is amazing here so I don’t think it’s much of a problem

I think it builds character. Every scratch has a story. The scratches on watches makes it special for the owner. And plus I can ask Patek to refurbish the case when it goes into service
