Alright guys if Thierry Stern said to you that you could have one patek philippe for free which would it be?

I am absolutely in love with the 5004 in stainless steel. Pure class in every sense

Lets see your grails

I would also take this is just in case they were out of the 50 ever made 5004 in SS

5208p

FremStar · 12 October 2012, 06:15 AM

David, there are so many grail Patek references out there which makes it so difficult to just choose one!

The 5208P you posted above is a VERY STRONG contender. If I won the lotto I would take anything from Mr. Henry Graves collection if it was offered to me!

As Ken would say... "Nothing but GRAILS!"

Well I must say the 5208P is quite an amazing timepiece as well, I wouldn't refuse such a duo in my watch case...

School is going very well my friend, thank you for asking!

Both are magnificent

I had the privilege of seeing a celestial in person with the baguet diamond bezel. I believe it was 420k.

But man that 5002 is the king do they still make them anymore gunter?

didnt henry graves have the most complicated pocket watch made by patek or something of the sorts Sam?

Also I recall a certain convo we had about a 5208 a while ago my friend

pietermann · 12 October 2012, 03:54 PM

I love PP and I know the models, but at the moment I don't have a grail PP...
If money wasn't the object and I would buy my grail, it would be a Rolex 1655

Puffy · 12 October 2012, 06:26 PM

too many....

while i don't like chronos i'd happily wear the 5951 ...

something about the red hands against the black...

and naturally the 5208..

patrike · 12 October 2012, 07:12 PM

5980R or a modified 5146R with simple stick markers all around. :)

5078p. A beautifully simple dial and the perfect size for me but at £275,000.....

unknown · 12 October 2012, 08:18 PM

a 5070 was imo the best they ever made.

So if they would make 1 more I would as for a steel 5070 with beige dial.

Thats all I ask for, I would prefer this above all these supercomplications. 1 custom made unique 5070 !

topcat30093 · 12 October 2012, 09:04 PM

5207P or 5208P

In all honesty gentlemen (although, of course, it remains a matter of tastes) I personally prefer those two. There's something that makes them look like the ones you posted but their simplicity makes them a tad more attractive to me.

Yoda · 12 October 2012, 10:52 PM

5970P. Enough said.

masterserg · 12 October 2012, 10:56 PM

The 5002P picked by Gunter is hard to top.

I love the 5131:

hutchman · 12 October 2012, 11:20 PM

5074P without hesitation!

eric23 · 12 October 2012, 11:24 PM

I would be happy with just a 5711 white dial.

A beautiful timepiece indeed! Although I would probably go for the yellow gold version myself...

jim251 · 13 October 2012, 12:46 AM

It would have to sing to me, and I mean literally... Think Sinatra, "Get Me To The Church On Time," with the big "Ding-Dong-Ding-Dong-Ding" at the end...

Thus, the 5074. Just don't make me decide on which flavor...

(from web...)

vpr80 · 13 October 2012, 01:58 AM

For the grail, it HAS to be a minute repeater.....5208 or 5074....both to die for.

masterserg · 13 October 2012, 02:01 AM

Still, I am a guy of simple taste ... I would be content with this pretty thing:

Pfff, what is this? Some kind of an entry level cheap-o?

In all seriousness, if we are talking about simple watches I think the 5339R is a must drool over!

Otherwise the 5159/5160 looks great (I tried the 5159 at an AD but the case and the dial of the 5160 look great in my opinion, I love its finish).

I am also quite surprised nobody came up with the 5207P yet...

...I know I know, I should probably stick to one but I just can't!
