Patek Philippe Pagoda Ref 5500P: Deliciously outdated.
All is in the title. I am turning around this reference, wondering if it could be a nice addition to my collection, but each time I am thinking of the 5100G... Still, it doesn't let me insensible. Best, Nicolas ...
Beautiful!
May I say that it somehow reminds me (a little bit 😊) of the GP Vintage 45? Best Thomas
No contest Nico!
The 5500P may be the rarer watch but the 5100G with its lovely blue dial and ten day power reserve and amazing accuracy is a class above a watch which only has a 215 movement.

I love this for its weirdness
But if I were you I would not let it interrupt my search for a 5100!
The Platinum Pagoda is a classy and elegant watch ! The case is simply wonderful!
The 5100G blue manta ray is also beautiful ! Do you prefer a religious building or a sacred fish 🐟? 😇
