Off to NYC.. 1.5 Nautilus link possible?

So im off to the US in a few weeks and have about 5 nights in NYC.

Is there anywhere that would have (and fit) a 1.5 link for my 5711?

No ADs where I live and it will be a while until I get back to the UK hence thought might be a good opportunity!

Thats good to hear.

Anybody have a email addy for them since I would have to make a international phone call.

I guess its not wise to take the watch and just turn up on arrival as would prefer to leave the watch behind if they have no link available at this time etc

the salon in London has straps, links, and whatever else you need so i assume HSWA has the same. London made me bring in the watches in though. No watch no buy.

They would not let me buy an aquanaut strap when i was in there with my 5990 getting a 1.5 link because i was not wearing two watches at one time that day

Here you go: Tracy DiStefano: tracy@patekusa.com

It’s been a while so not sure if she is still there but she can help.

Good luck,

Hi Tyler

Yeah I would need to bring the watch anyhow as im far too scared of playing with bracelet pins etc (dont mind screws but the thought of bracelet pins on a PP scare me)

To be honest it might be a case of not needing the 1.5 and just taking a link out. I seemed to have lost a fair bit of weight since I purchased the watch in London last year

Cheers

Just set up viber application on your smart phone or computer if you don’t have a smartphone, and put a few dollars on your account and you can call anywhere in the world for a few cents, and you can call people who have viber for free, don’t remember how much but around 5-8 cents per minute, it’s an incredibly great app, I use it all the time to call or write internationally

Killer of a long trip so far!




I called in advance and reserved a 1.5 link at PP NYC, but before that I need to stop off somewhere else to collect something...

Mission accomplished!

Grabbed the last 1.5 link in stock at Stern in NYC! Thanks for the advice people, I now have the perfect fit, funny how it makes wearing the watch so much more enjoyable!!!

Took a wander down the diamond district for some Patek window shopping as ive never seen many of the models and they seemed to have most of them!!!!
