Patek Philippe

I would appreciate any commends on the 5135G It looks quite interesting but I wonder about the case design Many thanks Cheers

My local dealer has a history of Annuals, 5035, 5036, 5146, 5135, 5396 even a 5056, and I just find that the round ones work better. Although I usually like windows better than subdials for calendar complications I find that the buldging case of the 5135 ... 

The shape is unique and interesting and love the way Patek placed the date windows. I guess this is one of those love it or hate it. I'm in the love it camp. Here's an old photo...

I had the ardoise dial and found the watch very nice in most respects. What I disliked was the strong glare from the curved shape of the crystal. Make no mistake, this is a large sized Patek. I am not sure if the silver dial varian would make a difference...  

Nice watch. Its whether you like the design or not. Told by some reliable sources that itis going to be discontinued.If confirmed then it would be one of the shortest run for an Annual claender. Henry Hoe.
