Thank you so much for your very kind words !
Thankfully, I find solace and even much more in my Chronometro Gondolo. And I’ll just keep an eye open for the 5105.
Thanks again.

I can completely appreciate your attraction to this beautiful piece. You have excellent taste, my dear friend.
I am sorry to say I am a bit of a contrarian regarding 5105P. I have seen and tried this watch on more than once. I love the style and execution of the case. I love the movement.
I love the 1930s/1940s stepped case rectangles that inspired this watch.
I do like this watch and have been tempted more than once BUT I always find that the dial leaves me a bit cold. For me it lacks the style and warmth of the vintage ones.
Patek got it totally right with 5098P, but not so with this one. I would love to love this watch, but like has yet to grow to love.
Thee atch is definitely a " cold watch " as it is platinum with a white dial but the styling and the edges and the crystal is what sings to me . But thta is why there is a such a large differnce in collectors habits and
desires

Thanks for your response and well stated analysis. The only thing I guess I can add, lucky me, is that my wife makes some pretty incredible salads and salad dressings😊
with d'yquem???? ;)) Please get the recipe. always keen for trying out new salad dressings
So, I guess I’ll have to wait until I can
see this watch in person to know if it’s my Château d’Yquem or my salad dressing ! ;-)

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts
and experience. It might share your feeling one I get the chance to see this watch in the metal.
In the meantime the 5098P gives me all the pleasure I can wish.
