I’ve had this watch for a long time. I walked by a window at a dealer in Connecticut Av. in Washington, DC (he closed long ago), I saw the watch and stopped to buy it. Love at first sight.
It’s not a sought after model but I believe it’s one of the best looking PP I’ve seen. I might search for one in white gold. Ref. 5030R

What’s not to like?? It checks all the boxes with tonneau case, breguet numbers…
and if it was a little larger then it would probably be priced much much higher.
Very reminiscent of the ref. 5040 which I love...
...on this one I could do without the date, but I love the case : ) ...
I agree, this is one of the best looking Patek Philippe.
And since it's not sought after, it's easier to get one at reasonable prices.
Stylish and elegant while understated ! Love the
brequet numerals and pomme hands 👐! Your watch deserves more attention from collectors !
