      Try buying a watch (at least a reference that is even vaguely interesting) from one of their ADs! These guys are often getting only one or two deliveries of a particular reference per YEAR. And (depending on the reference) they may have anywhere between 5 and 50 customers waiting for it - all of whom will have purchase history ranging from 100K up to millions. The brutal reality is that they only want new customers at all inasmuch as they are replacing old collectors who have died! The sheer grief I experienced getting a 5212A (which is not by any means the hottest reference) from a Patek AD pretty much soured me off of Pateks entirely - at least for the time being.

    I agree with Fed as regards the price of the steel Cubitus. As a supposed entry-level piece it is certainly over-priced. But as regards the _aesthetics_ I don't really see where all the hysteria is coming from. I did totally get the animus towards AP's 11.59 a couple of years back. I thought that was a very weak piece of design work at several levels. But this new piece from Patek is no howler. It isn't an incompetent design, IMO. Am I saying I think it's really great? No. I think it maybe falls a little under par. But I don't agree with the screams and yells of protest. (And while the AP 11.59 is largely a piece that people are muscled into buying simply in order to go on a waiting list for a Royal Oak, I think there will be legitimate demand from Patek collectors for this Cubitus.)

    I actually wanna see the Cubitus in the metal before judging, I really feel like it could be ok in the flesh. I think the Santos looks crap in pictures but in the flesh it's much better. I think square watches are pretty niche tbh.
    I agree though the whole "it's entry level for younger buyers" when the steel 3 hand/date is £35k is laughable. The two tone one is with £5k or so off a full gold VC overseas at retail and that comes with a full gold bracelet and 2 other straps, another clasp and much higher depth rating. I like the two tone one a bit in pictures but the price is really hard to swallow whether it goes for more on the aftermarket or not. It's over £52k! The 5990 is not much more and its really complicated albeit it in steel only.

    I think it's going to be a bit too big, but all that means is a smaller iteration if more are made.
    The problem I see is one of purpose not design.
    I think what patek need is a watch that is essentially an equalvalient to the breguet type 20 i.e. a cheaper offering for a differnt type of customer, but still worthy of the breguet name.
    The cubitist is just another expensive patek so it's not clear what patek wanted to achieve.

    One of the measures I use to judge if a watch is worth it’s salt is if the Chinese can make a clone. Patek are one of the most cloned brands next to Rolex, Omega etc. only Patek retails for x4 the price of the others. I never see Glasshutte Original clones, or Lange’s or DeBethune’s, so for me is a good metric to go by. By the way Mr Sterns comments were arrogantes and elitist, I don’t own a Patek and now I will certainly never will.

    But yes it does look like a 30k dollar version of a Mean Manhattan (a homage to some other old watch). That's probably why ppl are having this reaction.

    yep , glad I sold my Patek even though its beautiful the build wasn't as good as what you can have from VC Plus seeing the direction of the brand I think its going south .. the sports style doesn't work for me.

    It should be called the “Cubicle”. That way the owner is continually reminded of the employees who work in the cubicles such that he can afford stupid purchases such as this.

    I'll never have a Patek and I think it's not a bad watch. It's lazy and IMO a bad business decision, but the watch itself - alright, I guess. Regarding Sterne's comments - he deserves whatever is coming to him and his company.

    Thank you for saying it. Cubitus is terrible.
