I wouldn't wear it! It's not me! Made for rock stars, not for overly normal people like me.
That's one really flashy watch... I suppose I'd wear it if I were wearing a big red leather suit, big black sunglasses (Persol if possible), and wearing gloves with metal spikes and carrying a guitar and a microphone at a rock concert. In the meanwhile, I have no plans to become a rock concert musician. The movement could be inserted into a more "traditional" looking watch without the garish red accent. Excuse me, not garish, rock-star red accents. I also don't like the dial layout. I like the 5970 dial layout, the 5004 as well. I even like the modern 5270 with the two apertures. But something about this dial layout looks off to me. Je ne sais quoi. But it's just off.

Patek Philippe 5373P: Yes or no?
Compared to the 5004, the 5373P is two millimeters bigger and with a thickness of almost 13 mm, a tad thinner, so the proportions are more harmonious. You also have a sportier look, and a destro configuration. I also doubt that the movement is still the L...
Another amazing release, and fascinating to see how things continue to evolve since the 5004.
But I remain a loyal fan of the 5004. I love its classical look, the size is perfect, and even the thickness which hints at its movement. A small, perfectly formed, big watch! đ
And if you flip it upside-down it's an entirely new timepiece. đ
Revolutionary! Investors like Mr. Wonderful would approve.
Some GP vibes
I am generally not a fan of PP design but this sportier take will definitely appeal to a younger audience which is probably its main purpose, and therefore a yes from me.

For me . . . the 5004 all day every day.
I prefer the classical look. Itâs quintessential Patek Philippe. From the âglory daysâ I feel. I canât stand the holes in the dial. For me, it is not a harmonious piece. The 5004 is balanced and complete. Everything one needs is there and no more. The new...
PP have created some of the most beautiful watches on this earth
Too many to mention but this one is not among them. I canât understand how they can invest so much effort in to creating this watch because im sure it is top top level in terms of complexity and finishing âŚbut then they start off with such a poor design. ...
Agree
They look like they are just thrown in and not part of overall design. I also have an issue with the design of the moon phase. It doesnât feel like a match with the design of the subials but another language. All my personal opinion, of course
If one would force to take I would;-)))))
Okay, letâs be honest, itâs a different interpretation something that we purists are not used to YET! We wasnât used to the 5094 eider when released, and now we love it. Remember the Zenith Daytona, the chronomere Blue? Same here, give it time, and when d...
5004 please...
but at this altitude i'd hunt down a black 5959, or a 5950. awfully high climbing for us mortals...
Tough choice... I could live with both đ
Although my heart is really with the 5204G đ¤¤
Hi Nicolas, yes if I get an
allocation 𤣠The dial can be improved by having an aperture for the date so that it is less busy.
Move the crown to the other side and I love this watch putting aside it's price.
And this comment is coming from a lefty! Looks too weird with the crown on the left hand side.
