I wanted to see what real people were saying about it, not just the fancy marketing stuff. I spent a good chunk of time reading reviews and watching videos.

Then, I started checking out different stores. The specialty stores, you know? Not just any place that sells watches. I wanted to go somewhere that knew their stuff about Patek Philippe. I visited a few, talked to the staff, tried to get a sense of their expertise, and see the watch in person, of course, to see if any scratches. It is important to ask the staff if they can take the watch to test.
After that, I spent a lot of time comparing. Comparing prices, comparing reputations of the stores, everything. It is important to find a good store. I even tried to find some info on how to spot a fake Patek Philippe. You can never be too careful these days. There are too many scammers nowadays.
