Warm and Easy Going 5124g
This reference combines striking beauty and class with a warm approachable character. It’s curves, proportions and details captivate but never intimidate. Sophisticated yet down to earth, it will go anywhere without a fuss. I’m very thankful for it’s companionship. Looks great from behind too!
All the best
Very warm ! Good selection!
You should recommend to mr.br who wants a non-circle shaped watch !😃
Thanks and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great all rounder, round or not :) [nt]

A lovely Gondolo that we don't see often here, and I can only share your enthusiasm for it! Got it from my AD in 2010, the only difference is that we put on a flashy red strap...
The back side is also a beauty, I remember waiting on this model to be available versus its prior iterations, precisely to be able to admire the perfectly fitting movement! ;-) Enjoy.
That red is quite daring! As you say the movement is perfectly fitting...
for a three hander this Patek goes way beyond in many ways. The shaped movement, introduced in the 5098 and only ever otherwise used in the 5124, does integrate perfectly and has an exceptional and graceful architecture! So special to have a reference with it's own movement.
That’s a very beautiful watch. One to admire certainly. Regards Kev. [nt]

Thank you kev. I'm a big admirer of the black Breguet numerals, close up the (enamel?) finish is so lustrous, almost wet. I think I need some macro equipment... [nt]

It is a truly beautiful watch. Thanks for sharing it.
In fact, both examples in this post are beautiful!
Thanks, very happy this beautiful reference is receiving the attention it deserves ;-) Cheers. [nt]

This is such a gorgeous watch
It amazes me that it doesn't get more collector attention--a salmon dial Patek with those beautiful Breguet numerals and a superb shaped calibre. It's got it all!
So true, Patek rarely uses that dial and black Breguet on anything not highly complicated and priced multiples higher. This reference is great also for it's modern size and wrist presence...
not big but just right. The design is versatile. It really is a do anything watch, sports aside. This first version didn't have to long a run and there aren't many out there for sale from what I can see. The fact FabR has one suggests it does have true collector chops 
My father owns one, too.
His only Patek! If "blau's dad" doesn't qualify as major collector chops, I don't know who does!
Wonderful watch! I have a 5109r incomming...
With a similar dial, but I must say that the formfitting movement takes it to another level!
Also the case shape is very interesting!
Also the case shape is very interesting!
Thanks, some similarities and differences with that one. Hands, numeral placement and execution and dial finish and colour. Similar look though. The 5124 case is curved and cambered...
another feature that sets it apart. The sapphire is cambered and is borderless at the ends, while the case sides and back curve to hug the wrist. The double sides give more mass and presence, 43 x 33.4mm and allow a recessed crown. The balance and feel of this watch is amazing, a very high level of casework by Patek.
