World time enamel cloisonné
May I ask how difficult it is to get 5231G?
I have been collecting patek since 2017 . I was asked if i am interested in applying 5231G after I acquired 5160/500g 2 months ago . No doubt it is a magnificent watch to me too ! I was told this must be approved by the patek itself in Switzerland so I never have the guts to ask the AD to put it into the wishlist |

An application piece and needs to be approved by Geneva. You need a pretty significant collection before it’s approved apparently. I have given up hope now as lost AD recently so will probably try acquire a 5131 used instead.

If you were asked for the interest then chance should be high in getting the 5231. For me I would do so if the chance arrived.
*sorry, why cant you share pic of your watch ? and what have that to do with VIP status ? |

Many congrats on obtaining the 5160/500g, it is an amazing reference.
5231G does not need approval from Geneva, it is up to the AD and regional distributors (Libertas in your case) to decide who gets one. I can't see any issues that stops you from obtaining a 5231G |

5231 much easier to obtain today. Back in the day, the 5131 was impossible to get. A truly coveted masterpiece.

I’ve heard the production the WT enamel having less than 50 per production of each metal , roughly only around 20 per year . Although no one can actually tell except patek itself |

retrograde pc is underrated. too bad they discontinued the 5159, which was more 'affordable' than its big brother. Both fab pieces.
