Good going mate

Even when i've been wearing nice/expensive watches i always swallow/take a deep breath before going into the Patek boutique on Bond St! They have some beautiful pieces. I've gone in a couple of times to actually look at/try an Aquanuaut and a Calatrava when i was considering buying one. They were super helpful and friendly. I've also gone in an been totally honest and just said i would love to look at a couple of the Grand Complications but could never afford them. Again, they were only too pleased to show me. If you're friendly, straight and honest and go in when they're quiet/not busy then they respect you back i guess. Sales people in the own brand boutiques are nearly always more friendly than the one's in the multiple brand chains.

........it's when you go into the Breguet boutique that you really start to sweat
