What else do you wear on a weekend when traveling? Off to the Patek Museum in an hour and will post as the day progresses

archer75 · 24 September 2016, 05:05 PM

The other option will be your WT.

Look forward to see great photos. Enjoy the day.

Hahaha Russ I think a good interrogation aswell as confiscating his gorgeous Pateks is in order before boarding

I will be visiting the Salon also on this trip so lets see if I get any hints on the 40th. Personally I think it will be a non event & out of reach pieces for us mortals.

Great, have fun there

AJW232 · 24 September 2016, 08:13 PM

Have a great time, if you see any 5980r on strap in any of the AD's please let me know. It would be interesting to hear how the availability is in Switzerland.

Thank you! I must be one of the only ones who prefers it on the strap.

I prefer the dial of the 1R, but a full gold watch is too much for me, couldn't wear one

Hairdude1 · 25 September 2016, 09:03 AM

Awesome!

KarlS · 25 September 2016, 03:05 PM

There is a resident watchmaker who you can watch work and he was actually testing a repeater for a client collection when I was there. Unlike various negative comments I found the staff absolutely fantastic and definitely without any airs and graces. In fact I felt guilty about taking up so much of the Deputy Head of the Salon who spent close to 2 hours with me. They even followed up a few hours later with a nice email. So I had a great Salon experience. In fact i am going back this evening !

Sounds like an amazing trip so far. Are you picking up a special piece whilst you're there?

Sadly no pickups but definately it crystallised my thoughts on the next watch from PP and the design stage of a very simple 3 hander

WatchKY · 26 September 2016, 06:28 AM

Very nice! I will be staying in the same hotel and doing the same tour of the PP museum in October. Cool to see pictures

I think just you concentrate on keeping that 777 wings flapping!!

Of course we can remove the cufflinks and a 5131 will fit in very nicely!!
