Bought it and received finally!!
Received my 5098r over the weekend...there's something about the rose gold colour against sunlight and in dim lighting...absolutely gorgeous. I hope the picture comes out fine on this post. If not ill try again. In the meantime, i need advice on how many times to wind the crown. I did it 20 times...lasted only 24hrs. I wonder if I didn't turn the crown enough times,or didn't make each turn long enough...
Appreciate the experience from Emmanuale and Milos, or all other owners

I'm going to blame this one on the *Gondolo Gang*, Emmanuel and Modernahab ๐
I must admit that I was enamored by this reference since it was introduced in 2007. I love the strong vintage look and also the story of the Brazilian *Gondolo Gang*, their lottery system etc. The king of the show is of course the stunning hand turned gui...

HUGE congrats ! Your RG
has a vintage vibe and is so lovely ! div>Will you spice it up with a colorful strap in the future ?
Yessir....chances are pretty good, that I will.
Considering reaching out to my trusted gator strap maker and order burgundy and darker lime green.....also considering a true chestnut brown as the current brown strap is "very" dark.
Huge congratulations, Miloลก!
Your photos are wonderful, not only showing the great beauty and charm of the rose gold version, but also the "naked" case and the screwed strap and buckle bars. I didn't know you liked this reference so much, but obviously I understand why and it's defin...
I stand corrected...Thank you for the clarification on the year. You, please ....would you be so kind and edit my post?
Not sure what was happening but I was getting the
Amazing pictures, history and guidance...
Its my first post on WatchProsite...it all started with a link to Quattro's post on the 5098, sent by my friend Marc . It's certainly helped me decide to buy this model. 18k gold dial, hand applied guilloche, blackened 18k gold hands , gold cartouche plus...
Warm welcome to WatchProSite, rishi,
and congratulations on this choice: I really think the 5098 is a very special reference. You canโt go wrong with either the rose gold or the platinum variant: which one did you choose? Anyway, Iโm glad if our posts have been helpful. Best regards, Emmanue...
Thank you!!
Am getting the 5098r, because I get more vintage vibes from it and the pictures of the museum piece makes me feel its closer to the original production. Its also a little cheaper!! I hope to lock the deal very soon...I can't wait to have it on my wrist. L...

Absolutely gorgeous photo!
Congratulations, I'm very happy for you. Concerning the winding, I would recommend to look at the movement (crown wheel, ratchet wheel and click) while winding: it will let you see how efficient your winding is. The power reserve of the watch is small: ma...
Thank you very much Emmanuale and Amanico..
Will take the advice and do that more brave act of winding this morning....
45 hours of reserve!
So i had a friend who is a watch dealer to help me. We looked at the beautiful details of the dial and movement under a microscope, just mind blowing...and how Patek details are pain stakingly done to the highest standards. Also learnt how to feel the cro...

Congratulations on the arrival of your truly stunning Patek Philippe Gondolo.
The dial is just insane and the gallouche on the inner dial is just beautiful as is the whole watch, those lug bars remind me of early Panerai's. Wear and enjoy it in good health. iv> div> Marc
