Its three-window Day-Date-Month display is the picture of simplicity and easy viewing. While other brands force users to strain their eyes at microscopic sub-dial indications, Patek places all pertinent info within easy view. The 5135R is a classical Patek Philippe tonneau that wears like a modern watch. Its size and wrist presence receive a huge boost from broad-shouldered proportions that stretch 51mm from lug-to-lug.

The Gondolo 5135R wears much like a 45mm round watch (such as a Panerai Radiomir), and it never threatens to disappear on the sprawling real estate of an 8" wrist. At the same time, a flat profile and rounded case flanks ensure that the Gondolo 5135R slips easily under long sleeves in general and cuffs in particular. Inside, a Patek Philippe annual calendar is driven by the classic Patek Philippe in-house cal. 324 movement. Its Patek-signature Gyromax balance, Geneva Seal luster, and robust engineering uphold the legend of Patek's craftsmanship. If you own this watch, you *must* own a loupe.
