Would be curious to see the rest of that movement... $5k seems like a bit much.

I was just on Phongs website because it has been awhile. But he has one Patek for sale and its $14,500
I'm on a constant quest to find a super rep Patek. But it's insane (IMO) to pay $14,500 for a rep when you can buy a used gen for not much more.

Never! I don't get why one would? I don't understand why the factories would even make it? Demand can't be high if at all.

There are at least a dozen iterations of the gen. Each of which they made a handful of. From memory the Rep is alarmingly close to one of them , from aback and front.

Can you please link? I have exhausted my search and have only found 3 iterations. I will keep looking, but the other models look stunning.

as much as I do understand the beauty of a tourbillon, let alone a double one..this watch in my humble and personal and limited opinion is ugly beyond words.
