Following the recent detection of the new Galactic Center X-ray transient Swift J174535.5-285921 (ATEL #3472) and the search for potential near-infrared counterparts leading to magnitudes limits (ATEL #3476), we searched our catalog of Ks-band sources and long term variables in the 10'x10' field centered on Sgr A* (Servillat et al. in prep). We obtained yearly images of the field with ISPI at CTIO 4m from 2005 to 2009, and 3 images with PANIC at Magellan 6.5m (seeing 0.4-0.6") in 2004-06, 2007-08 and 2010-07 (the 2004 dataset is described in more details by Laycock et al.
