5146/1g-001 need help

Would really like your thoughts on this watch. It's the one with the white gold bracelet. Trying to figure out if it a grail watch for me. It's 58k new. Seemed to be very hard to find. Need to decide now. Have a 5711. Would really like your thoughts on this watch...the good the bad...
Thanks,
George

I can't think of one Patek dress watch on a bracelet that I like.....and if I am the majority probably why it's hard to find....it didn't sell!! I can include 5960, 5130 into the equation as well

Same here. I think it´s a nice watch but it certainly belongs on a leather strap.

I love the 5146 reference but on a leather strap. If you want a gold bracelet get a Sport watch (Nautilus or APRO) or the king of gold bracelets "Rolex".
But if I can't make you change your mind and you want a Patek dress watch on a gold bracelet , then in any case I would go for that beautiful blue dial 5396/1g-001.

Have you considered platinum? I have 5146P and I love it.



Good luck on your hunting bro

I've got a gold Patek with a leather band. Interested in the bracelet look. I like the 5711...and feel the 5146 with bracelet may be a nice piece in between those two. Other thoughts/options...tks

If you like the watch, then I would say go for it! At $58K USD, assuming it is brand new from an AD, that is 9% off of list price. I would think you can negotiate a better price, but I don't know what a fair market price is for a 5146/1G, since it is not a very common/popular watch.

My AD has one - and I'm also intrigued by this watch. Would somebody know forums or threads with lots of pictures with 5146/1G? Couldn't find a good thread on TRF and I understand Patek enthusiasts generally don't like gold bracelets.

Wow, great watch with spectacular bracelet! I really like 5146/1G, although I'm more inclined towards slate dial. Your collection looks very good and /1G complements the collection too.

Let alone the beautiful clean dial , the weight and feel of the watch is a joy. This exactly what Thomas did with his 5070 , he enjoyed the Gold version first and once you know the reference to the core you go to P. Smart move , I totally get it. Of Course you can do this just with some Patek classic/staple references, because not all have gold and P versions available.
In any case, thanks brah
Cheers and a happy new year !
