What next prestige watch that I possibly could buy at Boutique at MSRP?



After acquiring high-demand pieces from Patek PhilippeAudemars Piguet, and Rolex, your next move for boutique purchase and potentially more exclusive access might be to target brands with smaller production, like Breguet or brands focusing on different segments, such as A. Lange & SöhneCartier, or Moser. The answer is often F.P. Journe itself, emphasizing its unique artisanal production. 

In 2018 May after I left my name card  at Patek Philippe shop for a Nautilus 5712, after two weeks I got it at MSRP at about HK$290K, That was one of my first one to get a prestige collector’s dream watch. After that I have not been able to et any Audemars Piguet though I left my card at IFC AP boutique for a white idea 15400.. I know as by that time 2022. Audemars Piguet market price is almost at its historical high. By right they have no right to give a walk in client. though I knew the manager in charge.

It it time now for going a FP, Journe as for reason I love their hand design, case , dial colour and an unique iconic look of their watch, another reason is that they produce only 700-800 watches a year, comparing with 1 million Rolex, 60.000 Patek Philippe, 50,000 Audemars Piguet and 35,000 Vacheron Constantin a year.

I am expecting to get one after 2 years, I intend to give it to my daughter as her birthday gift.

If you're looking for advice on luxury watches, it's always helpful to compare options with trusted services nearby. For example, I recently had some work done at Volkswagen Repair and the professionalism really impressed me.
