Watches — a love letter
The Gondolo.
The Gondolo is the more unassuming Cartier Tank. It's the Patek I chose. I bought mine on eBay in 2021, a gift to myself for going full-time at Ellingwood Advisory after years of corporate work.
Why it works
A Tank nobody clocks.
And the alligator strap options you can get with Patek are half the fun.

What is the Patek Philippe Gondolo?
Patek's rectangular and tonneau dress-watch line. To me it's the more unassuming Cartier Tank.
Where did you buy yours?
