It seems to me that Patek is now a second-tier manufacturer considering the many advancements and very high quality a plethora of other mechanical timpeiece manufacturers now offer. By comparison, also add in what is now considered a required 5 to 8 year warranty and shorter service times as provided by many high-end manufacturers....

Let's face it, PP can live off their 'fabled past' for only so long and the world has changed around them. Goodness knows we all LOL big time when we read "rare and important" descriptions by self-promoting auction houses to get the most bang from your bidding. i just hope the workers, who deserve a lot of recognition, are happy working in PP's new manufacturing plant.
