Iam thinking of trading my Patek 5980/1A Nautilus Chrono and the 5170p platinum chronograph and add the funds to go for the 5204p
What are your thoughts ? Or should I add an incoming 5270 p salmon and enjoy all 3 and filter out something else
In this process I may have to loose two or three smaller timepieces in addition .

If it was me...
Instead of the 5204P i would add the 5270P and enjoy all 3. Or a thought a bit outside the framework of options given... are you able to stretch it to 5370P? I have the 5370P black enamel and it is hands down my favorite modern Patek. Rahul
So you can either
enjoy 3 chronograph watches or 1 chrono 1 split seconds. Ummm 🤔...what would I do ? Less is more !
if you have no absolute need to let go....
I would say keep the 5890 esp. the blue dial....it is a great timepiece (outside all the hype around on Nautilus). 5270P & 5170p would be great addition. 5204p....I'm not sure it is a good way if I put the other 3 opposite as choice. any of your choice......
Only you will know and have the right answer to this.
My subjective opinion however is that though this split second PC is simply awe-inspiring, I would vote to keep your collection, particularly if you are to add a PCC to it. That way you will have a variety to choose and wear, and can always trade up later...
Follow your heart
In objective terms, it is difficult to argue against the 5204p, representing a different league in the watch world.
