On my quest for a Patek…anyone own or handle a 5496r? Beautiful in pictures. I have never handled one. Does it wear large or small. Tried on a couple of Langes last weekend and learned 38.5mm Lange is too small for my comfort. I know this is 39.5. How does it feel on the wrist?

Tried one on recently and I really liked it a lot. It wears a little smaller than the 5235R which still fits me pretty well with a 6.5inch/16.5cm wrist. Clean wearing and I ended up liking it a lot more than the G version which was surprising.
It sat very flush on my wrist and would easily slide under a shirt cuff with that angled bezel.
If I didn't already have an annual cal in the 5235 I would have got it but am looking to fill a different complication gap in the collection.
