Rose golds
Hi all
I’m thinking of a rose gold watch and am drawn to Patek - 5146R, 5396R or the 5205R. Any owners of these here and what’s your experience of them? Any pictures would be great. Also before I contact my nearest AD, are these readily available pieces or hard to get? I did buy a 5711 off them a few years back when it was quite easy, but I’ve not dealt with them since. I’ve bought a lot of Rolex off another shop of theirs so am established as a customer of the group. Many thanks. |

You can’t got wrong with Patek. I originally had the black dial version of this but as much as I liked it I just didn’t love it. And then found out why. I saw this one and got it. The RG is awesome.

I have the 5146R and 5205G. The 5205G has a more modern and refined case and lug construction, with a concave bezel. The apertures are easier to read and the dial looks less busy. The 5146R has a deployant clasp though, while the 5205G comes with pin buckle.
The 5296R is also lovely but I chose the 5205 because of said reasons. Here are some shots. Good luck with your decision! IMG_24092020_181853_(800_x_1080_pixel).jpg IMG_24092020_181925_(800_x_1080_pixel).jpg |

I have had my 5146r for over 2 years now. Still love wearing it as much as when I first bought it! Good luck with your decision.

Thank you very much!

I love all the AC here but did not get the 5396 as I was going for the 5726, which has a very similar dial layout to the 5396. |
