My first week with the 5098P
Here's a photo report of my first week with the Patek Philippe Chronometro Gondolo ref. 5098P-001.
Before the party, I took a few shots in a more casual outfit.
Then I went to our holiday home by the sea.
I even took the watch to the beach at sunset.
I also took some static shots of the wonderful arched case profile.
And couldn't resist taking some shots of the watch standing by itself, front and back.
There's something particularly pleasing about the oval hour track, which highlights the full and half hours.
And the caliber 25-21 REC is such a beauty to look at, whether with the crown and ratchet wheels in action while winding or just with the regular "beat" of the escape and balance wheels.
During this static shots session, I found this small jay feather.
That's all folks!
I just love this watch and hope to find a more fitting strap in the next weeks.
Thanks for reading.
Best, Emmanuel

Thanks for sharing this photo report, Emmanuel.
It's versatility is a big plus and a positive surprise for me. The watch looks at home in different settings. Congrats, once again.
Thank you so much, Goh!
I've always worn my dress watches in as many non-specifically sporty situations as possible, and I've generally found them far more versatile than one might think. And this 5098P is no exception, so it'll be on my wrist as much as possible this summer. Be...
