Around 2.5 years ago, I purchased a 5905P as my first watch from an authorized dealer, and I managed to acquire a 5212A years (which I understand was quite challenging to obtain during the pandemic) 6 months ago after being on the list for 2 years. Given this context, I'm curious if it would be reasonable to approach the AD and inquire about the possibility of acquiring an Aquanaut or Nautilus model, such as the 5267A Diamond Lady Quartz Aquanaut. Unfortunately, my sales representative seems reluctant to entertain this request and continues to steer me towards dress watches.
While I do have a preference for Patek Philippe's dress watches, I'm unsure whether it's worth continuing my future purchases with this particular AD if they are unable to accommodate my interest in sports watches.
I know every dealer and every relationship is different, but just want to know what you guys think.

tough one, a 5905 and 5212 should be enough for a quartz aquanaut. Hong Kong is probably very competitive. do they offer any other brands you are interested in? If you switch dealers you will have to start from scratch. You could go grey unsure about pricing on the secondary market for this model. good luck.
