I really like the design of this defense.
And although I think it could be 1-2mm smaller, it fits my 16cm wrist very well. I’ve seen the navy and salmon in the flesh - both are gorgeous and it would be difficult to choose. The new gray dial is my favorite grand complication release by Patek this year in pictures - I have yet to see it live. But I do love this reference. It has vintage Patek dna with a modern case and a killer microrotor movement.
A look at the new 5236P-011
The new Patek Philippe In-Line Perpetual Calendar ref. 5236P-011 features: a silvery dial with vertical satin - finish and black - gradient rim , charcoal gray white gold applied faceted baton-style hour markers , charcoal gray white gold faceted baton-st...
My feeling as well. The grey appeals to my taste quite well.
I'm typically not too interested in perpetual calendar watches but I like the in-line display on this model and definitely would own it if money was no object. The salmon dial is my next favorite of the three. M4
Like you, I like the in-line display.
And the Padellone case. But I really can’t tell which dial is my favorite. The only one I’ve seen in person is the blue. Best, Emmanuel
I guess grey is the winner here.
As far as I’m concerned I can’t decide which one I prefer. I would need to see them in person. Best, Emmanuel
Neither would I!
But I find it really hard to find out which one is my favorite based on photos only. The only one I’ve seen in person is the blue one. Best, Emmanuel
I like all of them Emmanuel, especially the
blue 👍 The new gray is also lovely 🥰 in the metal !💪
The blue is the only one I’ve seen in person
and it’s definitely very nice. Good to know about the grey! Best, Emmanuel

I fully agree with you concerning the size
and the appeal of this reference. Just a little smaller would be great. Best, Emmanuel
I love the idea of this watch...
...and have worn the blue version for an extended period (while drinking beer) : ) It was a tad top-heavy on my 7.25" wrist. Perhaps a tad thinner or in white gold to mitigate the weight? But it's a very cool display...
Very cool indeed.
The blue is the only one I’ve tried on and I liked it. I personally prefer platinum for such a watch. Best, Emmanuel
Both references share the Padellone case, which is wonderful.
I would need to see the grey dial in person to be sure of how I feel about it. And the regulator is definitely a strong contender! Best, Emmanuel
I have no idea why I feel this way
But this reference looks very boring to me. Dial wise. I have a 3940, which I gifted to my partner. I tried to buy another PC from PP. Nothing excites me that much tbh. Just boring. Best Gatsby
I feel similarly. It’s nice enough…
but it’s not a step up from the previous navy blue version. It’s a solid offering, but not the best PC that comes to mind.
I can understand how you feel.
However, I think this in-line display is very nice and I love the Padellone case, even if I wish it were a little smaller. Best, Emmanuel
I don’t feel that way, but I can understand how you feel.
This display is definitely minimalist. But I like it and I love the Padellone case. Best, Emmanuel
Thanks for collating the pictures, Emmanuel.
The new grey dial looks very nice. Personally I prefer it when it looks more grey than sepia. All the best, Jon
Have tried on each of the 3 more than once. I like the model a lot. A very special watch aesthetically and because of the complications.
The clear choice for me would be the salmon. Aside from not having a watch with a salmon dial and having watches with blue and gray/silver dials, I like the smooth surface dial with no striations. And the overall look appeals to me the most.
