Thread all abt ROLEX - Part 2

The superiority of patek against ALS goes beyond Marketing.I’m not so expert to say ALS has better finishing than patek or Vice versa.. but I’m a patek fan and watch collector.. I would say patek gives more recognition to their original owners as collectors

Agree. Patek has a confirmed status as among the most accomplished horological company in the world and I dun think that accolade came due to marketing. The only thing i agree with their detractors is that Patek designs are getting boring. It is more or less the same with each new release.

Other than marketing don’t think Patek win them in anything

I thought Patek is worn by biz men? (The complications and grand complications dress watch).
I think I’m the most atypical Patek wearer. I wear the AC in tee shirts and jeans / shorts. Haha

Not something which anyone of us can well explain in a few sentences or phrases. I suggest you do some reading on their history, artisanal expertise, grand creations ( they are pioneers in the most complicated movements such as minute repeater and etc) and the care they take to manufacture every piece of their watches. If you visited the PP Grand Art Exhibition in Sep 2019, you probably know what we talking about. The accolades, prestige that is synonymous with the name Patek Philippe is definitely not a result of marketing

No la, I’m no rich man. I just find the look (an AC with tee shirt and jeans/shorts) a bit out of place but I seldom wear long sleeves office wear these days. 1-2 days in a week then go office and even then sometimes I will wear a polo tee instead of long sleeve shirts. So most of the time I’m in casual outfit. Haha

Not really pioneer. Louis Breguet was the first for the minute repeater.
Patek marketing in the past was done well. Infact they don't have their own perp calendar movement until recently. They have been using lemania base movement.
Only thing is one of the oldest watch manufacture and still independent. People like that.
