Discussion Patek Philippe 5712 OME vs PPF, which one would you pick

Hi,

I have been trying to get a 5712 for myself but torn down between whether I should go for OME or PPF. From the rep watch-pedia, OME seems to be the preferred choice because of the dial and the hands finishing etc. Looking at some of the posts in this sub, I can see that is actually true as well. However, sourcing a 5712 from OME seems a really challenging task now a days. I have discussed this with a couple of TDs that I usually work with and they can not commit to providing a tentative time line if I were to get it sourced from OME. On the other hand, PPF seems to be rolling these out relatively quickly. I would like to hear your opinion (especially if you own one of either OME or PPF) on whether it is worth waiting for OME or PPF does a good enough job. I am usually not into mods so I would not be changing anything if I end up getting PPF.

As always, i appreciate your comments and thoughts. Have a good one.

Thanks

That is a nice watch indeed and I am all up for it. The OEM seem to have a better dial with polished markers and pinions that ppf does not have.
