Did it come direct from Geneva or from the boutique in London?

May I ask, if you had recently bought a Patek, or have collected them over several years?

I am just wondering what they have based their criteria on for sending them out to clients ?

By the way it's a lovely looking book with what appears to be full of facts.

I bought my patek in 2011 and also requested the Book at the same time. The book was originally to be released late 2011 but Patek decided to delay publishing until 2012 so they could include the new minute repeaters. By the way the book came from geneva and not London boutique
