The bracelet (5036G)...
gives the watch a more casual or "sport" presence. Although I do not wear it for active sports I do use it for casual as well as more "dressy" wear. I have not had a problem with wear to the metal and suspect that a visit to the Patek "spa" would suffice should that occur. It certainly is suitable for daily wear depending on user preference.
At the time of purchase I envisioned it as a daily wearer. However, I tend to pick a different watch and wear it daily for a few days, weeks or months and then move to another. I often return to a simple Calatrava for daily wear. The 5036G was also made with a removable bracelet in later versions (as is this one). So, voila, one can have the best of both worlds!

A special pair...
Twins but not identical... The dials are lovely. The gold moon on black (sorry, but not quite visible here) and the white moon on slate grey. tempusfugit...
PP 5036 and 5056, we don´t see them ...
very often (these days) and not together in one picture. Both belong to you, if I may ask? Oliver
Yes...
Both are mine. Worn for differing occasions. As you can surmise, this configuration is a favorite! tempusfugit
Congratulations on the 1000th post

The white gold bracelet is very useable
I have a 5035p and often wish it had a bracelet. May I ask how does the watch wear? Could it be a daily wearer? My concern about the white gold is the plating and if it is durable.

Does the 5036 with the removable bracelet
have a different model number or anything so you can distinguish that it has a removable bracelet vs the model that doesn't?
No differentiation by numbers but...
The removable bracelet is known by the screw visible where the bracelet attaches to the case. There are some photos available elsewhere in the forum. tempusfugit
Thanks
I will do a search. Pity Patek doesn't offer any annual calendars or perpetual calendars in platinum with platinum bracelet.
Beautiful pair you have!
Thanks for sharing ! :) And congrats on your 1000 post milestone! Looking forward to more sharings from you tempusfugit! :) Cheers Robin
Nice annual calendars , comes in pairs

my first and second watch
My first PP watch was the PP5036 in white gold but white dial as well. The WG bracelet was a bit hefty but its hard to read the moon phase. I was stopped one time by one person who admired the watch. The first time I saw the PP5056, i immediately fell in ...
The white moon...
on the 5056P is spectacular. The two are quite similar, of course. The 5036G bracelet adds a more casual touch and the platinum is pure elegance (but suitable for casual wear as well). Each has a place for me. Good luck on the 5575! tempusfugit
