Pleasant visit to PP AD to see 5167-A
I enjoyed a long visit with Lisa Lammert, salesperson with Treiber & Straub, a PP AD in Brookfield, WI. She had just received a BNIB 5167-A Aquanaut. I found the watch to be a perfect fit with a low profile and very light weight! The rotor does, indeed, make itself known when spinning but I could get accustomed to it. All in all, an awesome watch that I hope to add to my collection some day.....

Possible discount on 5712's?
I am going to order one monday from the Paris boutique, was wondering if a discount was a possible thing or if it's no use to mention it?Since in many boutiques, Panerai for example, they look at you when you ask for one as if you were crazy, if it's the same thing with PP better to avoid than to get the cold shower answer: Non Monsieur, Patek philippe does not do discounts, with that special tone of voice, where you have the impression the guy is thinking you are buying a 20K + watch and you want a discount? How very cheap of you��Went there just one time they were quite courteous, since there was nobody we talked about watches with the salesman and I tried a few, quite nice, whereas in some boutiques the experience was terrible, again Panerai for example, you feel like a homeless who came in to ask for a few bucks by the way they talk to you, I don't know in the US but here some boutiques and AD's are awful whereas some are great.The worse is in Ukraine where I live, in luxury watch

Blnr for 233 ?
Hi everyone, The more I see the 233, the more I want to own in. Just wondering what are everyone's thoughts on a possible trade. I'd rather not have the additional expense of adding another piece, so I have been considering trading my BLNR towards/for a 233. So I figure I'd post and get suggestions from fellow members. Thanks,
