Currently traveling in Thailand. Walked into the Hour Glass Boutique at Siam Paragon Mall in Bangkok. Sitting in the display a beautiful 5370P!
I thought these were waitlist only? So stunning in person! |

Same. Certificate arrived from factory with my name on it. I guess if customer decided not to buy the piece would be available

That sounds likely. On several occasions I was told the company invested on those pieces, obviously they are not going to say a customer declined it. |

Very interesting. Thanks for the info. Wouldn’t be in the realm of one my purchases currently but definitely on the grail list. Such a beauty in person.
I’ll probably have to stick a 5170g to start first (whenever I decide to make that leap). |

Ohh great you made my day!!
So including all in all 138g. So it’s a few grams heavier than the 5170P. The 5170P has included all 121grams. Thanks very much!! |

Patek has always supported dealer and client applications, any dealer can put in an application for any piece (and a lot are turned down). In some parts of the world dealer applications are the norm. Mine was a client application, as were other owners in this thread, but of course equally you can walk into a store and pick up a dealer application piece. |

Is it typical to keep a double split watch with the second hands at 53 and 7, or at 24 and 36, or is this something that just a couple of posters here do? Serious question.

By the way none of the Patek split second chronographs has a double split function. |

And thanks for the clarification. I guess I was thinking ALS with their double and triple splits.
