I would call it messy...
Very often I find something very special from most of PP watches studying them long enough.
As an example I did not want to buy a 5140P even I loved the case and color of the dial because I thought the dial is too full compared to 3940. I considered 5140P for three years before the platinum case with blue dial forced me to acquire the same. Now when I am having the watch three weeks every day on my wrist, I start to understand why Patek made the changes on the dial: Even with my old tired eyes I can easily see the day, date and month.
However, the pictured watch is a fantastic Grand Complication with minute repeater and perpetual calendar. In my eyes the dial is really messy and the watch is lacking the noble character such a grand complication should have.

It grows on you ;)
overtime... i love wearing this piece... amazing character and great to keep looking at ;) ...
Certainly the most different and disturbing Patek.
I am quite eager to see your thoughts on this very special watch. I have no idea what to think about. Cheers and thx for sharing as usual. Francois
Harmonious and elegant comes to mind...
Skeletonization with restraint and flair. The manner of the day / month displays add interest. The only distraction to me is the billboard like Patek Philippe at the top of the dial. But I'm sure I could learn to live with it!
Piece of art!
strangely readable, but who wants to read time with such a dial, and especially that its a minute repeater :)
No doubt an amazing piece of craftsmanship...
And as a special piece to wear on those rare occasions, it would be amazing to wear. Certainly a talking point. But for me the dial is not to my liking, even though the important parts of the calendar are more readily viewed, I would still struggle. That ...
