Hello Everyone,
I am new to the Patek world but have always loved these watches. I was in the motherland of these awesome machines a few years back, visited a dealer and fell in love with them there and then.
I have always been a Rolex guy and have owned a handful and still have a few favorites I decided to hold onto. Now I am "softly" in the morket for a Calatrava ( I like the 3919 ) as a dress watch to be worn only on special occasions etc. I wear a GMT as a daily watch now.
I prefer white gold and I hope you guys can help me with a few questions.
1) Mechanical over Auto... is this a cost and value difference or preference is one lesssought after than another?
2) Is a particular watch or year a less desirable piece than another?
3) Not specific but what is the market bringing for the mechanical and auto's these days?
I thank you in advance for any advice you fine folks can offer.
Kind regards,
Shane
