Attended a private event at the PP Boutique in Singapore and received my first PP gift - a set of aromatique candle. I was actually hoping for a small gift (such as tie) or something (or a watch box), given that I was buying my first PP piece right before the event. But the sales lady said no gift :( Hopefully on my second purchase then....

There was a set of cuff-links being displayed during the event but no way are they going to give it every one who attended the event yesterday! The cuff-links are priced at S$8k++.

Cufflinks are not cheap. Therefore, I do not ask them for gifts. However, My AD is happy to offer me as gifts. Of course, I am more happy to collect them.

Wow! Those watches are awesome, and the gifts are very thoughtful from your AD.

My dream gift from my AD is to give me an invite for SIHH or Baselworld in the future even though the air travel and accommodations are not free. I'm still dreaming... :)

Unless you want the VIP access/private preview .... you can personally buy a ticket to Baselworld and even one day at SIHH now. No invite needed.

Get your ticket and have fun...just ask Lapince our Basel expert...

A private viewing appointment at Basel is when the big collectors get to see the unique and small quantity pieces that never makes it to the catalog. That happens when Patek truly recognizes you as a VIP client. AFAIK a few forum members here have been invited to the private viewing at Basel. Of course, general admission is open to the public with a purchase of a ticket at Basel.

I always say my gifts are not free although I had many gifts.

Sorry about my Poor English which Jamie taught me. He taught me many good English that I prefer not to discuss in public. Now I am getting old. Lazy to learn good English.

Be happy, Finally I will get my gift. I won't worry because Jamie will send me more if I do not receive the gift. I try not to ask gift any more and I am scare from asking gift now. recently I did not ask for golf bag and cuff links. It is Jamie's idea. Nice gifts. I like them.

Gifts from my AD recently

I hesitate to resurrect this thread but here we go.

Not a gift but guesses as to the box contents?
