Opinon on 5204/1R-001
May 23, 2019,20:04 PM
I Have an opportunity to buy 1 year pre-owned Patek 5204/1R-001.
As you know this is a watch with black dial and gold bracelet.
I am wondering as to why such a watch which is hard to get new.. since it is an application piece.is available for resale so quickly.
and whether the collectors out there are disliking something about this reference.
Need Help on few issues such as
Does the Patek warranty carry over to the new owner and can the new owner register the watch with Patek.
Any idea about the depreciation factor on such grand complication Patek reference. I would appreciate opinions and experiences.

I myself am considering one (non bracelet). I imagine that such watches are hard to get new because they are of extremely high value, and not as many are made by the manufacture (which is fair to prevent an oversupply). From my understanding, this piece i...
5204 is not an application piece

Saw the watch at two dealers in Germany and you could have just bought it if you liked it. Normal watch for all buyers.
A warranty is a property of the item not the person owning the item

At least here in Europe, but it should be also in the U.S. the same. Further regarding waranty: the service of this watch is peanuts compared to the sticker price. It should not bother you at all. So if there is warranty on the watch then you should benef...
