I would say that the people that are were allocated this watch own numerous s Pateks so having something different in their collection is an attractive proposition. It is certainly different! I think it may develop a following as a result as it definitely grows on you!

In that context, and only that context, it makes sense. Otherwise, it's a completely dull watch with a messy set of features jumbled together. The 5522 makes a lot more sense as an LE. This one, it looks like something from the LV shop with the harlequin/daumier dial. I'd be really bummed if this was designed as a wide release. One wonders if the next wide release new model will be slightly more interesting. Being Patek, one does not raise their expectations too high.
