5036 as daily watch
Thanks for the feedback and apologies for not being more clear as it's my first post.
I'm comparing it to a Rolex Daytona that I wear daily. I have a Calatrava that I don't wear as it's a leather band and it always feels quite delicate to me. Besides the Nautilus and Aquanaut, is it realistic to wear the other Pateks as daily watches?
I'm ready to go for a complicated watch. Ideally, I'd actually like a perpetual, but figure that the Patek perpetuals are too sensitive and expensive to be worn daily. The annual calendar and bracelet of the 5036 seem more reasonable. 5146 I'm sure is nice, but prices are so much higher for the slightly larger size with same function.
Should I save for a future perpetual or 5146, or is the 5036 a good investment as well as a watch that I can wear everyday?

What does everyone think of the 5036? I'm looking for a watch to wear daily and not have to take off for showering or going to bed. Anyone comment on the readability at night? Thanks.

i dont think the perpetual is any more delicate than the annual calendar. if you are doing such a strenuous and intense activity that a perpetual calendar's movement is damaged, I would be confident that the annual calendar's movement would be damaged too...

makes for a great daily wearing watch, I think it fits all of your needs except the showering. All though I'm sure it will stand up to the water, I think the soap is the bad part. As for investing , you have to go much further up the food chain or get ext...
