Was a big time Patek collector for 20 years. About seven years ago got out due to lackluster quality and loooong service times. Only have my fave vintage rg Calatrava piece for tux events and have zero desire to revisit Patek until they sort out their many problems.
Patek desperately needs a major management shift. Those of us who remember Patek decades ago remember the great service, excellent build quality, etc. Constantly re-casing their long-in-the-tooth movements into larger and larger cases is kinda a rip off imho too. Patek needs to produce at least two new base movements asap, perhaps three.
