I've finally reached my dream of 5004p. I don't think I deserve to own this watch. But I made up my mind. It was also a big factor that I lost nothing at the Geneva auction in May.

Itβs definitely thick and heavy. But it has an overwhelming presence.
Huge congrats Shun, this Patek would be THE highlight of virtually any watch collection! The unique beauty of Ref. 5004, its horological value, and its relevance within Patek's own history make it a truly admirable acquisition! Enjoy thoroughly! :-)
5004 is my most favorite modern Patek, and black dial 5004P is a coolest watch in my eyes. I had pleasure of briefly wearing one that belonged to a friend of mine, after I picked up the watch for him from the seller. I ended up acquiring a 5004G for myself, and always wish one I day I could own a pair (or even more) of 5004, and a 5004P black dial would be perfect...
5004R black dial is fabulous and super eye-catching...

... while 5004P black dial has very low key hence is the coolest. 5004A is certainly rare, but if we really count by production numbers, the black dial 5004P and R, as well as 5004G (only with white/silver dial), are quite rare too, and I don't know which one is the rarest...
This strap was originally attached when I bought it. I was thinking of switching to something else, but after hearing your opinion, I will use it as is for a while.
