Gondolo 5200

[Alex Leonat S.]

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know what's happened with 5200 ?

[HL65]

I know my AD ordered both dial options. They are quite limited and will be very hard to get. They also aren't even on Patek website last I checked. I also know I LOVE them and will likely get one with blue dial! Again will be very hard to get one and I know my AD said likely a 12 month plus wait. So we shall see and until then will drool over the pics!

PS here are two pics courtesy of Ben aka Hodinkee: Expect in next 12 months according to my AD and Patek management. I love them both but the blue....Mmmmmm!




Yes delay much like the 5235 experienced.

These watches look gorgeous , not for me. These fall on my Category of the "JLC Reverso effect" I am not comparing watches, but what I am saying is this: they look beautiful but once I buy them, they accumulate dust in the safe. Been there done that. But if you do wear them, then yes, absolutely !!
Cheers

This is the same way I feel, they're great looking watches, just not fit me.

Perhaps better to focus on 175th pieces

Both!

I am in no rush myself and when it comes it comes and if not who cares I save money!

For now I must decide between 5235G and 5960 1A and that hasn't been easy on my brain!

If I was to bet I guarantee you will have BOTH on the wrist

You Will have too much problems with the 5235
Choose the 5960 1a which will become, as you said, a collector

Thanks for that advice and I am leaning that way as to me the 5860P black and that will make a killer combo!
