to see a 5004P anytime.

Not nit-picking, but is it normal for the "day" wheel to still not align at the time shown ?
I am referring to the FRI.

A LIttle Photo Report (Patek Philippe 3970 and 5004 inside)

Over the past couple of days I have got to handle and photograph some dream watches (3970 and 5004). Enjoy with me Reference 3970ER Reference 3970EP Reference 5004P It wasn't enough to have a perpetual calendar chrono...it had to be a SPLIT SECOND chrono....  

Some Patek "rock stars" from years gone by

Great pics...thanks for posting them. As much as I like white metals in general, I'm partial to the sensuality of the 3970ER in particular. Cheers, John

It was fun to see your pics. But definitely fun for you to fondle those patek super complications. Consider yourself a fortunate soul. Cheers. Geross.

The 3970 reference is really something I like a lot

and the movement is perfectly sized to this case. I prefer even the 3970 to the 5004 but they are two iconic Pateks (as nearly all chronograph based references from the brand) Thanks a lot for sharing your clear pictures Dylan! Cheers, Mark

Thanks Mark!

Glad you liked them! It was my first time handling any of them and I was kinda terrified to be honest haha. And you are completely right about the 3970! Thanks! Dylan

Thank you Dylan for showing a bunch of dream watches

I would be happy with any of them but 5004P would take me to 7th Heaven. Best Kari

It certainly was fun!

I was wondering if anyone would mention that ;)

It was just this one, and seeing as how the watch was not my own I didn't feel comfortable changing it before shooting. Regards, Dylan
