Some pictures of my 5235 R.
I recently added the Regulator 5235 R into my collection.
A timepiece that stands out from the rest of the PP collection in terms of complication (regulator plus annual calendar) and modern aestetics.
The white gold first iteration of the watch was in my eyes less striking than the current rose gold version.
The combination of a grey dial with darker sub registers in combination with the rose gold case gives the watch a very refined and modern look.
The reading of time on this regulator is very intuitive,certainly also helped by the very good legibility of the dial.
The vertical satin finished dial changes strongly under various light situations : from silver grey to dark anthracite...and all shades of grey in between.
The case design is strong with hard angles,brushed surfaces and sharp lugs.This gives the watch a very modern look and is quite a departure from the traditional soft polished PP cases.
The movement is superb both in architecture and technical innovation.And it fills the case nicely!
Great traditional and very recognizable PP finishing : I like this micro-rotor!

The accuracy is extremely good : only 2-3 seconds per week !!
Thanks for looking,

Thanks,Fabricio!
One of the rare watches that satifies me both aesthetically and intellectually.
Thanks,yes,quite unique.
With the exception of GO I do not know another major brand that currently has a regulator in the collection.
Gentlemen, I would like your help with the following matter. I have purchased a 5235G that I just received. A lovely watch for sure. However…
On the right hand side of the dial one of the vertical brushes is much more noticeable than the others (between the H and I of Philippe). In some lighting it is not visible at all, whereas if you look at the face head-on it is VERY visible. I am happy to ...
Hi Chetbaker
I have the exact same watch I bought brand-new when it first came out. It’s a wonderful watch and I’m attaching some pictures for you to review. I did close-ups as much as possible and I don’t see anything on the fail like in your pictures. Please let us ...
Hi Jim - thanks that’s very kind. After some back and forth with the seller I have decided to return the watch. If I’m lucky I will be able to
replace it with a brand new one that’s still sealed. More money - less problems.
Wow a absolute beautiful PP
Really am i big fan of regulator watches and this case and dial combo is so gorgeous Huge Congrats, excellent choice
This is for me one of the
best and nicest offers from Patek. It’s a really beauty where everything seems made right. Even the for me always critically viewed sub registers are solved here in a very tasteful way. Many congrats. This is an outstanding piece! 🙏 Best Thomas P.S.: And ...
Congratulation Gérard. This is an absolute beauty. Great pics. I love that watch and also prefer the VVS rose gold over the white gold.
One thing people tend to forget is that this watch has all the elements that were in all the advanced research models. Love the “shadowed” writing of PP and the striped structure of the dial. Same as the new inline calendar. Well done man!
Congratulations. Thank you for this wonderful review.
The pictures are superb. Enjoy it in great health.
Hi Gerald, your Pilot looks so beautiful !
Excellent photography skill ! What camera did you use ?
Many thanks.
I am using a pretty basic Nikon D90 : the "magic" is all about controling the light and some post-production.
Brilliant shots,
this is a watch which my wealthy acquaintance purchased just a few months ago as a gift for himself. Let's just say that he could have easily afforded any watch under the Sun, and he chose this exact piece . Cheers, Filip
This reference has me thinking…
I never cared much for the G, but the R has an altogether different attraction. Your gorgeous pics bring out the best of this intriguing reference. I switch between loving and hating it. If the past is any guide, this means it will be growing on me even m...
Fantastic pictures
of this fantastic PP. In flesh it is one of the most beautiful PP just from the looks of the dial and overall. The movement is a marvel anyway… Superior to the 240 in terms of decoration and detail imo. The only Patek with the full silicium escapement „Pu...
Hi Jlux, gorgeous Watch love the rose gold and
the dial. Many don’t know it is an advanced research watch and I think it’s the best regulator on the market today as it’s a annual calendar as well. Much congratulations to you. I bought the white gold version brand new, I don’t wear it a lot but I do lo...
