How about a look at the back?
Am I correct that the back is slightly curved to conture the wrist, or is it flat like the other models?
A new Patek for me
I have been looking to add a Gondolo to my collection. I appreciate that many will say that THE watch to add is the 5100 or even the 5500. To be honest, I have tried both of these on and, well, it just looks completely wrong on my wrist. My wrist is on th...
Not a bad idea, my friend. If the one you traded is the one I am thinking about.
Because this Patek will have more wrist time! Best, Nicolas
Gorgeous Mr Baron, absolutely, bravo! There are two.....
Patek which I really like, the 5124G, yours! and the 5196P....both are on my dream list...or to get list:) Cheers Francois
Hey Francois...
....i must say that what has surprised me with the 5124 is the dial variation from different lights. When a dial is flat or dead with no variation, I find that a negative feature on a watch. This 5124 has a great deal of life...... Many thanks for your wo...
I totally agree with you on the dial but the case design....
is also beautiful and the form mouvement a delight! Cheers Mr Baron, wishing you a long love affair with this simple yet superb time piece. Cheers Francois
Spectacular
Truly a spectacular piece, I think you've chosen a winner! Interesting to hear your view of the dial as I had always thought it more of a copper color than salmon as well. As nice as this watch is from the front, the back is the real treat IMO. How often ...
Avery nice watch.
However, the same with blue dial would be even nicer. Best, Kari ...
uhm...i have a decent Patek blue-dial...
....so was looking for something with this style.
To each his own...
Sorry, but as nice as Patek's blue dials are I'm having a hard time seein it on this one. Different models are better suited for their color selections and while the blue works famously for the Elipse, nautilus, WT and really any of their sport models, th...
Joe, may I say that is a superb choice......
The dial is sublime and looked amazing under different light, it also fitted perfectly on my wrist when I tried it on. Unlike the 5100 & 5200 which I have tried and found to be too long for my wrist.
Yep...found exactly the same.
......now if I had a wrist as pumped and worked up as Imran....... that would be completely different
Yep...
....i opted for a black strap...tends to work as well. Though do like your choice too....
Feels like its melting on your wrist...
... with the breguet numerals being suspended and the bezel acting like a frame for what looks like a "painting". Lovely! Congratulation Joe and wear it in good health!

Nice.
I never give much thought this model until I saw your wrist shot. Next time I see one I will try it on. Dangerous post this is but I'm starting to get used to it ;) Congratulations. Regard Tyler
Tyler....
I never gave much thought to it either until i tried on the 5100 and 5500. I found both of those so impossible to wear that I was curious to see whether it was the generic shape of the case that didn't suit my wrist or not. But when I tried this 5124 on, ...
