I was wondering how you felt about the new dial for the 5204 Perpetual Split in person? A little bit modified from the original blackened hands and indices version...

I wanted to share one of the greatest experiences of my life, as one of fifteen collectors from around the United States to be invited by Patek Philippe for a week in Geneva to tour everything that is Patek Philippe. Patek flew us all Business Class to Ge...
Thank you so much for sharing...

... what a class from Patek to offer such a treat. How hard did it make you feel like buying a watch during that trip ? And which one ? Didn't they show you more exclusive things like 5950, 5208, 5213, 5216, ....?
We saw everything..

You name the reference.. we saw it! I was so close to pulling the trigger on a few pieces at the Geneva Boutique.. I had to restrain myself. Although when I got home yesterday the hunt was on for a 5131!

... and wait that Geneva gives it to you :) Most models you can find and some at a discount, but this 5131 has a premium that is just too high. What do you think of 5204P?

I loved it!

Much more captivating in person! Extremely crisp, legible and symmetrical.. White indices mesh well with the creamy white background. It's basically the same layout as my 5270, so I really enjoy the dial. Its either the 5204 or a 5131 for my next!

by me, after spending some time on Sunday morning. Hope you donĀ“t mind, but it looks much nicer like this ;-) It is very nice to see how different the dial of your 5270G looks in different light, but anytime it looks beautiful. Thanks a lot for sharing yo...

This was my first time I was really able to capture the 5270 in some great lighting. It's quite amazing how the dial seems to just come alive!

For a marvellos report. What an amazing time you had. The Mandarin Hotel is were we stayed on our visit. And I totally agree with you in regards to the Boutique, it is a gorgeous shop and it gets better the higher in the lift you go ;) :) I love the split...
