Just wanted to say Hello. This is my one and only Patek. An under followed/under loved reference, it seems. I quite like it!

Agreed it’s not the most popular TODAY. But I wouldn’t bet against it long term.

Beautiful, and it's exactly this reference or the 5167 I'm looking at.
My first choice has been the Gondolo 5135, every time I see it, I'm confident that will be the next one, have it sourced and everything. Great choice and welcome to the forum. |

Welcome,
It’s not the “Hot” watch on Instagram, but it’s a seriously cool watch, I’d love one in my collection, aside from the Regulator, that would be my personal AC Patek choice. |

Yep , my wife loves the 5135 R that I wear on occasion- it is one of her favorites. She calls it our “wedding watch” because it was the one I wore when we were married. :-)

I would say ~50mm lug to lug, give or take. It's a pretty big watch. My wrist is a bit larger than 7" and I think fits me perfectly. But if it were any bigger, it would probably be too big, IMO.

a couple other shots, where the yellow gold shines a bit more than my initial pic. BTW... I really like the rose gold version as well.

People don't understand it, but is a pretty rare watch. You won't bump into another one in the wild. Rolex daytona on the other hand I see multiples in a week.
