Patek Philippe

in exactly the same size, would anyone jump right onto it? And If you currently own it, do you still wear it often or find it superseded by your other bigger sized watches? I'm considering looking for one, but pondering over the size by today's standard... By the way if you have one that you like to let go, do let me know. Cheers!

I have had one for several years and it is a gem of a watch - reliable, fun (case back, movement, etc) and perfect for day-to-day activities as well as formal occasions. It's a bit of an underground watch as it's fairly rare in my experience to come across one. Good luck in your search.

The officer's case, size, numeral style, hands, etc.  The total package makes for a great watch!

Do you have any more photos of the 5053 on wrist? Thank you.

and it is also a discontinued model ;-)  Thanks guys for sharing your thoughts!  Anyone knows where to get a listing of Patek retailers phone numbers?  Not found in Patek website.  Apart from resale market, I'm thinking of old new stock that might be stashed away somewhere!  It's a long shot but past experience led me to a discontinued model in a retailer's vault 2 years later! 

Hi,

Don't forget the new 5153! 





A very nice watch too!

Cheers

ps: the 5053R was my dream Patek Philippe for years!

and had the opportunity to handle one recently...happened to be the first piece received by a retailer! Everything about the watch is impeccable and finishing is amazing. But something was holding me back. It didn't give me one of those I-must-have-it moments. It is probably one of those exquisite pieces that in time will grow on you. I'll wait for that day ;-) Cheers!
