Great Video!! Mabrook brother for this amazing purchase!! One note to Niko: The water resistance is REAL 30m and includes aquatic activities - Patek confirmed that in their press release: Unified criteria for water-resistance To ensure the homogeneity and clarity of the information provided to clients, Patek Philippe has decided to introduce a new unified standard of water-resistance set at 30 meters for all watches certified as waterresistant -having been tested in air and underwater by immersion at an overpressure of 3 bars (corresponding to a depth of 30 m). This measure makes it possible to guarantee the same performance level across all the models concerned and to provide perfectly comprehensible information as to the dayto-day activities in which clients can engage while wearing their watch: washing their hands, showering, bathing, swimming and other aquatic activities, including diving to a depth of 30 m - which corresponds in large measure to actual utilization.

By the way, I would go for the 5712 because of the de-centered oscillating mass displayed of the movement, another real beauty. I started to comment because I think I saw somewhere, I don't remember where, that Patek had adjusted their watches deepness resistance but guaranteeing those meters, something I think they weren't doing or something like that.

Hi. First of all congratulations on probably the best grail watch! Actually love your AP Royal Oak as well. Such a treat to see both in the same video. However, I had a quick question. As accurate the Patek is supposed to be, I'm not sure if it's my understanding or something might need to be checked on this particular watch. I'm speaking about the 24 hr dial at the 6 o'clock position. Are you sure it's not a second time zone feature? The reason I'm asking is, in the b rolls, the time on the watch was mostly set at 1:45 or 1:50 PM. Which is 10 or 15 mins before 1400 hrs. However the 24 hr dial was past the 1400 hrs and nearing the 1500 hrs mark. Maybe a quick check at the dealer can fix it. Didn't intend to scare your friend or make him feel bad about his purchase. Just want to ensure no one else points this out to him. :)

This is absolutely what is wrong with the watch industry. When you see this many watches in the secondary market office and not in a AD retail store it almost devalues the watch. This is precisely why the consumer can’t go into a AD and purchase a watch because they sold them all to guys like this. I will no longer purchase a Patek, AP or Rolex because of this, it’s absolutely fucking ridiculous seeing this many watches in the hands of a non AD. If your not offended then your not a real watch lover in my opinion.

FYI Patek Philippe issued a press release just before W&W this year on 9th April..which explains clearly the water resistance.. Unified criteria for water-resistance To ensure the homogeneity and clarity of the information provided to clients, Patek Philippe has decided to introduce a new unified standard of water-resistance set at 30 meters for all watches certified as water-resistant -having been tested in air and underwater by immersion at an overpressure of 3 bars (corresponding to a depth of 30 m).

So unless you intend to go scuba diving with your Patek Philippe watch on pretty much you are pretty much covered… having said that who in their right mind would take a Patek Philippe watch to a 30m actual depth..not me 😂😱 Make Make of it what you will..
