The 30 on up....not worried. But geez, a Patek before 30 just doesn't work LOL

They'd also own a working d**k as well which is far more important.

Back in 2012 was when I acquired my first Patek, I was 21 and it was a blue 5711. I just turned 26 and I no longer have a 5711

but have a 5146a and am hoping to acquire perhaps a 5960a or 5524 maybe sometime in the future

It's also interesting that so few of these post regularly.

I was 42 when I bought my 5711.

I'm 29 and have a 5711 and 5110p, but I've been fortunate through my job and also able to recycle some money invested from another hobby aka whisky collecting =)

I was 30 and bought a 5065a “jumbo” in 1999. Still have it, though my wife commandeered it. Been hooked on PP ever since.

Looking like 29 for myself, AD pulling strings for a 5167a - Trading my Hulk towards the purchase and some cash saved up. Looks like this may be my last watch purchase before life takes over. (New house and family

50.

Have loved watches my entire life, never thought a Patek would be attainable. Bought my first last month (5196P) and my second earlier today (5227G). Love them, these very well might be the last two watches I buy!

Also - huge congrats to those of you enjoying Pateks in your 20s and 30s! That’s awesome, live and enjoy them in good health for years and years to come.

Got my first Patek 5960/1A-001(Left) when I was 39 during 2015.
3 years later added the 5960/1A-010(right) and been wearing them daily in rotation ever since.

Cheers

It's the watch that can both begin and end a collection. It's the watch that you can wear every single day of your life and not worry about, or it's the watch you can put in a safe and have it rise in value year after year. The Submariner is, in my belief, the quintessential timepiece for many. When my mind thinks of the word 'watch,' it is a Submariner I see."
