Hi members, Recently I was fortunate enough to see this understated
tourbillon piece with a lovely salmon 🍣 dial !
The case has three steps which matches the design of this watch quite well IMO.
Did not think that the 31mmx51mm would fit my wrist. Having it on, the sizing seemed not too big.
According to the owner, winding this watch fully takes over 2 minutes because the watch is designed to run for 10 day.
The back side looks fantastic !
The tourbillon function is really designed to be discrete and to not have it exposed to sunlight which could dry the oil, correct ?
What do yiu think of the 5101P ?

By a giant leap my favorite Patek
The case, the dial the mouvement are to die for And thanks to the case this is one of the purest art deco watches out there
The 5101p is terribly under rated
but it does wear large at 51mm in length. Notice that in the photo, it is further up your wrist compared to the 5131. If you moved it lower down your wrist Gordon, it will be too long for your wrist. The case and dial are sublime. The movement is beyond r...
True Sham ! Thanks for
talking some sense into my clouded mind ! Otherwise I would have lost two limbs ! LOL !
I saw one a couple of months ago...
...and it has a ton of presence. I've always loved the reference and admire the way Patek puts the tourbillon on the back. Unfortunately, I didn't get to try it on.
Truly amazing and embodies all that I love about Patek Philippe...
I must be content with its little brother, the 5124g. For now 😉
You have a more muscular wrist than I do...
The 5101P is definitely a bit big on my wrist. But definitely a cool watch. I always wanted the 5124G with the salmon dial or the 5124J which had an Empire Art Deco look. Sadly, they discontinued both models!
no need to be sad Patrick ! The discontinued pieces
are available in the secondary market
I generally don't buy used watches.
I have only bought watches used from people I personally know. Which limits the buying pool considerably since I don't really know anyone with the 5124. I did buy a watch at an Antiquorum auction, and later that turned out to be a fraudulent case. And now...
correct, understated and under the radar ! It is meant for the
in-the-know collectors !
A magnificent piece! 🔥🔥
But have to agree with the other, the size is a bit too big IMO. Nevertheless, it’s an absolutely stunning watch! Thanks for sharing the pics 🙏🏾🍻
5101 is perfect
Actually, a fun fact, Philippe Stern wrote a book he distributed in extremely limited quantities for friends of the watchmaker. It was split into two. The first part was about the values of PP. the second half was Stern’s 11 favourite watches. Most weren’...
Thank you for this
interesting piece of information ! 5101P should be loved more by collectors !
Thanks for an insight! What watches were his favourite?
Is there any way to find this book in the internet?
Wonderful shots!
I don’t believe I’ve come across any photo that captures the side steps to the 5101P as well as you have.
