Patek reference 36?
Greetings Folks!I was curious, have any of you heard of a Patek reference 36? Black chocolate face dial? Looks black to me, the dial that is.I will try and get some pictures but it's a typical older watch, smaller and has a sub dial. Gold case.The gentleman that has it mentioned the dial is a little faded and that may come up in discussion about value? He wants 3500-4000 for it and I can't seem to find any mention of the watch online.Thanks for taking the time to read my query:)

Patek Philippe - help with first purchase
Hi,I am looking for a little help.I have collected Rolex's for years and love the brand but feel I need something else in my collection.I have always loved Patek's but thought they may be just something I would aspire to and may never actually own. However, I have recently found myself more and more drawn to the brand and think I will soon commit.The model I like is the 5296 Calatrava although I am trying to make my mind up between the 5296G .luxurytime/images/products/5296g_010.jpgand 5296R.prestigetime/images/watches/5296r_010.jpgMy questions are as follows:Should I be considering anything else in the Patek range?Where is the best place to buy a Patek in the UK?Is discount a word that can be used with a Patek AD?Any other help or advice would be appreciated.RegardsNigel (Figas)

I bit the bullet..again.
Having got the black version there was only one way to go.
