Happy Birthday Gondolo..!

Treated my Gondolo Calendario to a little present to celebrate its 7th birthday.

The watch came fitted with the 18ct Patek pin-buckle as standard, which I have always felt was penny-pinching by PP. I quickly fitted the strap with a Hirsch gold-plated deployant buckle and wore it that way for seven years.

On my last trip to London, I picked up a new 18ct yellow gold Patek Philippe deployant buckle to "complete" my watch.

Wasn't cheap, but hey, good old Mastercard, and I think it was worth it!

Before, with the Hirsch buckle fitted...







and now...







Now back on my wrist!
