Okay, so I wanted to remake a Patek Philippe Gondolo 7041R-001, the classic style one. I started by looking up the prices online. Man, these watches are expensive!

I started by searching online and found a bunch of price lists for these Gondolo watches. They were all over the place. Some places were selling them for, like, $29,774. Others had them listed at all kinds of prices, from around $11,000 all the way up to $144,000. It was crazy. The average seemed to be around $22,000, which is still way out of my budget. And get this, a used rose gold one, the 5098 model, was going for about $23,400. And if you wanted a platinum one, those started at around $29,000.

So, after seeing all that, I decided I needed to get creative to get that classic Gondolo look without spending all that money.

  • First, I searched for similar-looking watches. I looked for something with that cushion shape, which is pretty unique.
  • Then, I started thinking about materials. I found some watch parts online that were way cheaper than the real Patek Philippe parts. I picked rose gold-colored parts because they looked fancy but didn’t cost a fortune.
  • Next, I needed to find a watch movement. I didn’t need anything super accurate, just something that would work and fit the look. I found a simple manual wind movement online that seemed like it would do the trick.

Once I had all the parts, I started putting the watch together. It wasn’t easy. I had to be really careful not to scratch anything. I used some small tools I had at home and followed some tutorials I found online. It took me a while, but eventually, I got it all assembled.

The final result? Well, it definitely wasn’t a real Patek Philippe, but it looked pretty good! It had that classic Gondolo style, with the cushion shape and the rose gold color. And it only cost me a fraction of the price of a real one.

Overall, it was a fun project. I learned a lot about watches and got to be creative. And now I have a cool-looking watch that I can wear without worrying about it.

So there you have it. That’s how I tried to remake a Patek Philippe Gondolo. It wasn’t perfect, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.
