If you could only have one…
Of the modern perpetual chronograph Pateks, which would it be? 5204: 5270: 5970: Of these three, the 5270 has gotten the least love among the public. Curious what collectors here think. ...
For me it’s the 5204. But I am a sucker for
split second complications. My ultimate perpetual calendar split seconds is the 5004!
Agreed, Split seconds 5004 and PCC
Only 5970. But since money is not infinite for me I’d go WG 5270 or even 3970 most bang for buck
I will be happy with any one of the above…
I have tried on the 5270J and it wears perfectly on my wrist. I’m not sure about the 5204 and thinking it might be a little thick at 14.3mm….i would assume the 5970 will wear fine like the 5270. For my logical mind, I will probably get a 5270R/J/P any ver...
5204 - When it comes to PCC (and SS-PCC) I just prefer clean dials with no Tachymeter scale
So 2499-3/4, 3970, 5004, 5204, 5270g-1, 5270p-14
In my opinion, the one you can afford will be the one you love more or less…
As a grail, I’ll vote for the 5004 or 5204, due to the complication and balanced esthetics. Now if we are talking about PPC’s , my favorite will be the 3970P silver/white dial followed by the 5270G first generation closely followed by the second gen(chin)...
5204 for me please!
Since I already have a 5970 These are actually two great references imho
5970 all day long. Then some more.
Brimming with Patek DNA. Prefer the Movement , case proportions and dial layout. Simples. Lume kills the 5204 for me. M. ...
5970 is definitely my first choice. IMHO about as perfect as a watch can be. 2d - 5004. Plenty of 2499 DNA and slightly larger than 3970 at 36.7 to 36 mm. Also much prefer the dial to
standard 3970 dial which I find to be a bit austere. I find the 5004 case to be a bit too thick for its size. Not as comfortable to wear as 5970 or 3970. 3rd - 5204 Love the complications. Would have to get used to the hands and lugs, which I am sure I wo...
