Possible Sector Dial for the 5170?

Well we have seen Arabic markers on the 5070, Roman numerals on the 5170J and Breguet markers on both versions of the 5170G. Aren't we ready for a sector dial chrono for a 5170P? Would love a light colored laceur dial with blue markers and hands. (Pic is not mine and could not find the source but this is a beautiful vintage chrono Ref 130)

Would indeed be very cool, but I'll stick to my blue dial or salmon dial 5170P hopes.

I would never turn down a Salmon dial Bas. I just skipped the R version so am getting ahead of myself haha. I just wanted to dream up some additional options LOL! And for the P version needs to be limited like the 5070P was.

Would be nice! The Sterns need to bring on board for some design ideas.

Nice, but I doubt it will happen. Too much of a change in a storied line. And they have th anniversary chronos for that.

On one hand I would love to see that, on the other hand I would miss the wonderful Breguet numerals.

Well let's hope Patek listens to us and gives us a sector dial 5170R and salmon dial 5170P.
