Good morning, I am an occasional visitor and was wondering if anybody has experience in comparing the quality of the movement finishes on the above references? I have often heard it said that the quality does appreciate as one “moves up the ladder”. I have seen the above individually but never side by side.
We all have grail watches and finally I figured that one watch I would like to close my collection with down the road and May sell few of my pieces and upgrade to a Patek 5204P
I wanted it badly for my 40th birthday however I was unable to manage it due to financial restrictions then . 4/5 years and Iam looking to get the watch which I had been in love with for the longest time ...Holy Grail for me Patek 5204p which I can see my...
Now that’s an exit watch!
I love the subdial fonts, the straight, stepped lugs, and the legibility with that handset! Gorgeous!
Ouch that is heavy stuff also !
I particularly like this iteration with black dial 👍. Hope you can grab one one day you won’t regret it. No need to have many, less is more 😉. Also this 5204 is not only gorgeous but also quite versatile specially with this combo white metal case and blac...
You’re talking a very serious watch here
The classic combination of these complications have merged in a beautiful case. The dial color is perfect. I can understand why it’s your holy grail watch
You could not pick a better watch.
It truly is what we get out of what we pay for that matters… Jim
Wow, go for it!
Absolutely stunning watch. I’m sure it will be amazing when you make it happen. My 50th watch was the 5970R. I can’t wait to see what I get for my 60th 😜

Excellent choice. 5204P is a grail watch for me too!
Apart from the steep price tag, the only slight concern is the small chin at 6hr position. However, it is the only perpetual split second of Patek at the moment. Wish you all the best in your quest. Best, Henry
5372P is also a split second chronograph with a perpetual calendar.
I prefer it over 5204 as it has no upside down moon phase and squashed numerals.
5204P Black Dial
I was on the fence White dial VS Black. After seeing the Black it was a quick no brainer. A lot of interesting comments and surprisingly many negative about the 5204P but I was blown away. Black dial it is. Pics to follow.
Beautiful pic. Was at Bergstrom recently and Antica Terra
Are you from the NW by chance ?
stunning piece
hope you get one! I would probably also rate this as one of my dream pieces, would settle for the less pricey 5204R with white dial as well... last time I tried that one I felt there was a connection .... hmmm
