New to this forum - hopefully I can be a worthwhile contributor! I’m due to pick up my 6007 this week. Regarding allocations - Yes, I’ve bought a few pieces but I wouldn’t classify myself as one of the big spenders. I started buying Patek quite young and am self-made so I think I fit in with one of the type of people Patek are looking for when it comes to choosing who gets watches - I.e. someone who is a fan of the brand and has strived to own them and, obviously, won’t flip it. I’m sure the big big spenders will get an allocation, and good luck to them as they have spent big with Patek. But I don’t think it is just about spend, otherwise I’m not sure I would have got one... having a fantastic AD helps too. |

Well, I've bought A LOT of Pateks
I've never sold one of them and I wear them all the time My AD just told me don't count on getting one of these What a joke. Very irritating and disappointing to say the least. |

That is surprising if you have a good report. If I may ask, what is your collection that you bought from them ?

I heard Patek blackballs clients who use a Rolex picture as their avatar on TRF.

Just a heads up guys for those of you who really want this watch which I understand was sold out quickly, if your willing to pay market price, European Watch has one listed as "incoming" I am sure it will not last long so good luck if interested.

Wonder what Patek will pay to discover who flipped it.

Exactly - it’s quite a design step for a calatrava. Personally, I’m a fan and become more and more so the more real life pics I see of it but I get why it splits opinion. Can’t wait to get my hands on it!

With the exception of the strap and etching on the reverse, I really like this piece and it’s a bonus that it’s limited. Are you considering alternative strap options?
