Hi Murcielago boy,
Reference 5951 is based on thinner base calibre, requiring a harder work at producing parts, finshing and assembling them. It is also finished to a higher level, somewhat at the top of what Patek Philippe has done in that area.
So some technical aspects are different inside and led by the search for thinness.

5204 and 5951 do NOT DO the same thing: one is a sschr pp, the other more a chr pp
A very interesting question here! The 5951 uses the caliber first introduced in the 5959. As said very thin and threfore with HORRIBLE tolerances for the watch makers! But aside that it has got some much more interesting features: - a continiously moving ...
Thanks to both Oliver & Moritz.........
For your fine explanation regarding the differences. :) Regards Tony PS Personally, I always marvel at how collectors have so much in-depth knowledge :)
And the 5951 is
Also a mono pusher chronograph as well, another important difference. Gary
