This one is to be held at The Mandarin Oriental in Geneva. The highlight and star of the event is clearly the "Patek Philippe full 24-hour repeating, quarter and special-type five-minute repeating 24-hours in one revolution" pocket watch, circa 1894. This will be no small event, the catalog lists over 600 items.I know that most Pateks are too tame by Paneristi standards, and I guess the standards of many sports-watch fans, but I can't get enough of Patek. e??��This Patek described above is one of those over-the-top vintage pieces that we see as the cornerstone of every large auction."the recently discovered

Warranty on NOS from AD?
I recently purchased a yachtmaster for my wife from an AD. Last week, I noticed the warranty card was not in the box so I called them today. Well, I knew the watch had been discontinued and they did offer it at a discount (abet more than the preowned they had, and a LOT more than gray market). They told me today because it was sold as discontinued and sold with a discount, the watch was sold without a Rolex warranty (only their in store warranty, hince no card).My imagination is pretty creative on what really happened, but I want to believe it is something simpler (such as a 2015 model, so a 2 year in-house warranty is better than the 2 year Rolex). My next bet is that it was a like new rather than a nos-and the already registered warranty has already expired.Any other explinations?
