Yes, 5100 is a wonderful watch

but glad it was a limited edition.  Adds extra flare to an already special piece.  Funny thing as I think about this reference is that when I tried it on in 2000 I recall it feeling too large for my wrist.   Then when I tried it on again more recently it felt too small.  Love the 10 day manual movement.

Ive got to say that the Ref# 5100 Ten Day Watch of year 2000 is the best simple watch

The 5100 Ten Day Watch to commemorate the year 2000 has got to be the best of Patek Philippes simple Watch. It is not an automatic movement, I prefer it to the Jumping Hour Watch Ref# 3969, and the Ref# 5970 which is so large, and the world time 5110, 387... 

"Simple" Watch

My vote for the ultimate simple watch goes to the 3939HP fnk

Own the PT version... Absolutely love it. I get an unsolicited compliment on this watch evry single time I wear it out. My nephew calls it "Bruce Wayne's" watch - because of the bat wings ^v^
