PS: The engraved case is absolutely fascinating and I enjoyed contemplating it during each of my visits to the Patek Philippe museum.

If I could afford it, I wouldn't hesitate. But what I appreciate most is wearing my watches as often as possible, every day. And the prototype almost feels like it could be worn every day (even though I know that's just a dream). My Chronometro Gondolo 50

First of all, your yellow gold duo is absolutely wonderful.

To the point that if I was the owner and was able to replace one of them or both for white metal examples, I wouldn’t want to do it. I would keep it exactly as is. Because of its warmth, I’m generally attracted to rose gold. But sometimes, yellow gold jus

I love this story, Gordon.

Thank you so much for sharing it and a big thank you to our dear cbb. I love the passion, the friendship, the nobility of feelings, and… the Grand Master Chime! Would I get my 5098P tattooed on my arm? No. But it’s my pride and joy: my personal (and affor

I am sorry to say I am a bit of a contrarian regarding 5105P. I have seen and tried this watch on more than once. I love the style and execution of the case. I love the movement.

I love the 1930s/1940s stepped case rectangles that inspired this watch. I do like this watch and have been tempted more than once BUT I always find that the dial leaves me a bit cold. For me it lacks the style and warmth of the vintage ones. Patek got it

Old fashioned...Mad men style!

So the saga of the Gondolo continues....and I'm delighted! I love my whisky too Emmanuel, and after much runs with many cocktails, one still runs back to the classic old fashioned. I learnt that from the infamous Don Draper, mad men fame!! I read lots of

Well, then I guess “I'm old fashioned” !

The Jerome Kern-Johnny Mercer song was written for You Were Never Lovelier (1942) with Rita Hayworth and Fred Astaire. My 5098P says hello! Have a nice night or day. Best, Emmanuel

Marvelous piece!

When I see the word bewitched I immediately think of Rodgers and Hart's Bewitched Bothered and Bewildered. There's a great movie with Ethan Hawke playing Lorenz Hart. It's called Blue Moon. Free on Netflix I believe. Worth the watch if you like the Great
