5056 is my favorite annual calendar

I traded my 5036G for a 5056P and never looked back. Nowadays I seldom wear because of 5550 but one day will bring it back to the rotation. I just need a new strap smile

Just got the strap readjusted at the patek boutique in London. Their staff were amazing as usual. Tried on the 7234r also that I like a lot a lot... It’s thicker than I expected but it’s remains very nice though... Kev ...  

thanks a lot Nicolas!! I tend to wear it occasionaly only as i'm scared of scratching it... but it ends up staying forever in the box tho...

What do you think about the pilot one?i'm hesitating a lot as i found it a bit thick BUT still loved it and the size seems right to my wrist I believe Kev

Is the pilot 5524 or 7234?

it's the 7234r - officially being the woman's one

Is Beautiful!!! That was my first Patek Philippe. I traded it in years ago to help finance a 3940, but in my eyes the 5056 is something special. You wear it well!

Thanks a lot ! it's my first (and only one) patek too so far...

I like it a lot! obviously a perpetual calendar wld be the dream but I may get it in another life tho. Kev

Tried both 7234 and 5524 at Salon, the R is more interesting than the G

the size is awesome as it's an "old" model so still using the smaller wrist sizes... although I can understand that the "population"'s wrist is getting bigger on an average, it's a shame there are almost no watch still in 36/37 mm nowadays... apart from t... 

Not sure

if average wristsize has increased at all (except, of course, for weight related issues). It seems a mere trend. In some years size might be back at 36.

just an extra hole

i ordered a custom one from Camille FOURNET and it seems that the size I took was still slightly too big for my wrist Kev
