I would wait if I were you to buy a 5098
I think that a WG/RG version of this will be offered by Patek. If you are willing to wait, it will shave 20% off the price. I do not know about you, but it is extremely overpriced.

as beautiful as 5098 is
I also have a hard time to justify the price that c an afford annual calendar. On top of it - introduction of 5124G just makes it an easy choice for me
