Patek Philippe Gondolo and Tribute - pic heavy

Today, I decided to do a Tribute to my friends Irine Denisevich and Vijay Raniga, at Brinkhaus (now Birks - Brinkhaus) here in Vancouver. They made it possible for me to acquire this gorgeous Patek Philippe Gondolo. At the time, they also designed and made custom jewellery. At the time I got my Gondolo, they had a beautiful yellow gold and Ruby ring, one-of-a-kind which they were offering at almost half price. Coincidentally, although the ring was not made specifically for the watch, or for me, the style replicated the scalloped edges of the Gondolo case, and was also a perfect fit for me! Impossible to pass up on such an opportunity!































Even though each day almost feels like a Sunday, I hope you all enjoy your's!

Cheers,
Carl

Yellow gold is the best version of this Gondolo. Seems like it could be worn casually also. Don’t sell it. Nice pictures.
