A pilgrimage to the Geneva Salon (Report)

[Humble michael]

Wow - thanks for the tour - my wife and I are going to London 1st part of Sept - wondering if it might be fun to go to Geneva also? Maybe see PP and Rolex botiques? What is your opinion? Of course we couldn’t get the special tour you did OP - ha! Thanks

We were warmly greeted at the door, and once I asked for that specific person, we were made to feel at home. First, we were given a tour of the Salon:





And on the top floor, there are stunning views of the lake and Jet d'Eau.





Next to follow are the watches!

Wow, I am moving to Geneva in October and this is definitely something I will need to do.

Wow... Great story. I was there there a few years back. Brought back a lot of memories. I really wish I took pictures inside the salon. Geneva is great city and the people at the PP salon could not be nicer!

Really fun driving along Lake Geneva and stopping in some of the small towns.

Thank you for sharing!!

(sorry for digging this thread up - although it is one of my favorites with so many gorgeous pics!)

Does anybody have the email address of the Salon in Geneva? I submitted an enquiry via https://www.patek.com/en/contact 2 weeks ago but I have not received a reply.

(I'm asking about 5196G .... would like to buy one there when I visit in a few months' time).

thanks for the review Tom, hope you had a great time. I really enjoyed it when I went last year, I would do it again

regards

Tom! amazing review buddy!
I cant believe I didnt see your thread until now
Great pics
I am so glad that my friend could make your visit worthwhile and give you an amazing experience, it makes all the difference in owning a Patek, no matter if its one or if its... more than one.
Btw, everybody still dying to see the goodies :-)
