Seems like a great opportunity for an enterprising AD to pick up a lot of loyal and "wealthy" clients...

Who's looking? :)

I think there is a lot of last minute "sales" to avoid this. As at least you can sell it on preowned w/ a valid warranty provided the AD sold it before they were no longer an AD.
Could they not theoretically put their own name on the paperwork and sell, albeit with a warranty that starts ticking when they fill it out?

Moving to the Dark Side

I have been considering buying a couple off Pateks for several years , finally I ordered a 5712 and a 5740 , I can’t wait 😊. I was really disappointed with what Rolex brought to Basel 19 . Maybe this has pushed me into trying the PPs .

Now I need to decide what has to go from my Rolex Collection to help off set the cost of the new PPs . I do have multiples of certain models so anything I have two off will be first to go

I will be selling a 116506 and a MK4DRSD 1665 and smashing my piggy bank for the balance .

Can’t wait to join the PP club .

Congrats on placing the order. Did your AD give a delivery date indication.

For those that have confirmed their ADs were cut, did you confirm this from the Patek website or from speaking to the dealers?

Hasselbeins was a great store. Can’t believe they’re no longer an AD. Will need to find a new AD.

The total number of AD still remains at 422 globally. Same number as the time when this thread was created.
