Dear All Would like to share with you this uncommon/ non-orthodox reference. It only arrived at market around 2 years after its launch in 2011, heard that because of the difficulty in manufacturing the unique 260 caliber inside. It was a sought after refe...  

Thanks, Prof. This regulator is indeed special.

It’s one of the Patek references that the movement view is as attractive (if not more appealing) as the dial view. In fact, the beautiful movement is the main reason of my acquisition. ...

In addition to the unusal lay-out, the brushed dial is mesmerizing IMO. When it was first shown in the Patek magazine but before it was finally released, the 5235 created quite a buzz and I for one was excited about this new model. Somehow the excitement ...

I guess the reasons for its low popularity include: 1. Increased supply from Patek 2. The separated 3 hands layout is unfamiliar to most people, resulting in difficulty at time reading 3. The minimalist or futuristic dial doesn’t match the conventional im...

The 5235G is PP’s watch for a horology nerd

5235 is one of the most interesting modern Pateks

Initially it used to be a quite sought after model as production was stopped several times during its production cycle before Patek saturating the market in 2017.

Hi Henry I own the same watch and although

I don;t wear it a lot I believe it is a winner. I bought it because I thought it was “different” and I liked it but not like my 5970P etc. I believe it is a wonderful and very unique, I don’t really care about the value but if you hold onto it long enough...
