New Incoming Nautilus 5712
Want to wish everyone a merry Christmas and happy new year..... This year was difficult in terms of new timepieces but I was fortunate to add a substantial amount of timepieces to the collection, and 3 just came in the day before Christmas. No introduction needed here..... Yes this is my 2nd 5712 in steel and when was offered it again I just couldn't refuse since this one will be put away..... I want to Thank my AD for everything, I hope everyone enjoys. Will be maybe posting the (rarer) pateks another time.

It's not lucky my fellow enthusiast...... It's Passion and more importantly LOYALTY..... stay loyal to your AD and eventually great things will happen........ That said Patek Philippe has a extensive catalog and lots of interesting timepieces. Don't follow the hype.
Wish it had the extra sauce..... Coming soon. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk |

As you know it's always 1 AD....... And they apparently came a few days before Christmas. So patek apparently sends out every AD 1 week before Christmas a big shipment of approximately 15 pieces..... So if you were a good boy throughout the year you got something.

I don’t think i’ve ever crapped on a NWD thread...and i am genuinely happy for you...
But really think this is a crap AD..rather than serve someone else on the list they’d rather sell the same highly desirable model to someone they already sold one to previously. Perhaps there is more to the story... I’m all for free market - but, on face value, just reeks so much about what’s wrong in today’s watch environment. Passion (not calling into question your passion, OP) isn’t quite the word i use. |

I don’t doubt you are an excellent customer - they would’t have offered you a second one if you weren’t...but that was sort of my point - and about their behavior, not yours at all. It would be a shame for my post to influence your (dis)comfort about posting. It was not in any way a critique of you or your great watch. |

You have to understand that there are many people on watch forums who are furious that their place in line for coveted Pateks and rolexes go to celebrities and VIPs.
It is a fact of life, but you may have unintentionally rubbed people's noses in this practice. I don't think people fault you, but rather the ADs that do this. They don't like to be reminded of it. Quote:

This will leave a bad taste in the mouths of many members no doubt. With a collection as deep as the OP suggests and surely many things to talk about on a watch forum, this is such an odd posting.

I must say, that is a very beautiful watch. I can’t wait to get my hands on it, congrats.
