A lot of them sounded frustrated! Shouldn’t take it out on someone looking to pay 34k retail on a watch! LOL

I have played that game before man. Usually whoever answers the phone does not know reference numbers and puts you on hold...then a middle aged man picks up and tells you how they are very scarce yada yada yada

hang up dial the next

Sample response...Thank you for your inquiry about the Nautilus collection pieces. Sadly there are no pieces to be had at this time and as we are faced with a very lengthy waitlist, we would be unable to accommodate any further requests.

This used to be readily available even in the UK! Some rethinking on supply has to happen with Patek, this imbalance on so many models just isn't working for anyone but speculators.

i would try to go in person to any AD's you can. Phone calls are not taken as seriously as someone who comes in. Especially for a watch that is harder to get, but still obtainable. Wouldn't work for a 5711, but for a 5164 it probably would.
