Saw a 5724 and a 5522. At a Rolex AD!
Stopped into the local Rolex AD who still has my deposit on a SS Daytona, just to check in. Their store doesn't officially carry Patek, but one of the other locations does. She had what I believe was a 5724 with the diamond bezel and baguettes on the clasp. Not my style, but interesting to see. I mentioned something about that limited edition of 600 Patek and she brought one out from the safe. It was the 5522. It's the first two PPs I've seen at this shop. The 5522 was still in a bag, so I couldn't see it that well. The 5724 was really cool in that it has a mini-rotor, so the beautiful back is not obscured so much from view. I thought that was the coolest thing about the watch, but then again, I don't really know anything about them.
I didn't take pictures, because I didn't want to look like a tourist.

Oh, it wasn't for sale. She just brought it out to show me since I mentioned it.

I'm pretty sure Razny is an AD for Patek

So after you checked in on your Daytona where are you in the line?

Interesting. They took care of me in what could have been an otherwise an unpleasant situation, that was my experience. They did everything right in my case.

True. As of late I learned of a situation that has taken my business elsewhere.
