Anyone been to the one in NY or London ?

As well I might finally buy with my first PP if there is a Singapore edition of the WT or another watch (at a price under USD $ 60k).

Should I talk to AD Singapore already about it, to be sure to get the special edition model you think.
Same here, very excited.

I'm not too sure about the ticket. Speak to your AD to get complimentary tickets?

For the limited edition Singapore piece, I think the typical AD relationship applies. Have you purchased any Patek from the ADs in Singapore? It certainly helps if you know an AD. There is a big pool of Patek enthusiasts in the region.

I am in the process to purchase my first PP (on waiting list for 5711 as well, but it might not happened before 2-3 years the AD said)

I am eager to purchase a WT special edition, specially with Singapore on it because Singapore means a lot for me compare to NY for example.

I will re contact them by email and see them in January anyway

Keep you posted

Given it’s Singapore- I believe the highest per capital GDP how about a special edition reissue of 100 pieces 5970 or 5070 with hunter caseback engraved with the Merlion or Singapore skyline. I would piss in my pants.

This would easily sell in my part of the world. Would not even last a week from anouncement before all 100 pieces are spoken for.

Let’s just make it a steel 5070 and price it at £40k. You know, so that we can get new enthusiasts into the brand

ADs in SIN would need to just unplug their phones for 2 years. I wonder if we will see a 5170A to boost its hype. They did it with the 5960.

If I can get it, then all good. I do have 4 Pateks lined up for the next 6 months, so not complaining here.
