TS has said repeatedly he doesn't want to cut off the ADs as they know their local clients and market the best. Some ADs lose their Patek license and others are added. We as outsiders do not know why, although people can speculate as to why. I am sure Patek insiders know the reason if anyone has connections to Patek NYC (aka HSWA).
My opinion is that PP will continue to open boutiques in partnership with longstanding ADs like they did in Miami. This way they retain excellent staff, loyalty from the AD and its customers and boutique only experience. Seems like a win.
