5270P picture thread
I’ve yet to see this beauty in the flesh but some of the photos on the web are stunning. I will add some of my own once I get to see the piece in June but for now here are a few of my favourites. Other great pictures welcomed.

Where did you see these Russell? They look amazing! Are you planning on applying for one? A PCC would be a great addition to your collection.

The pics are stunning. The watch looks like a winner. Just wish it was closer to 150k instead of 190!

That is beautiful. They truly perfected this reference with this one. For me it stands head and shoulders above the rest of the lineup.

This watch is really beautiful. I’m rethinking the 5740 plan...

I think the pics really look incredible. This watch for me personally is a bit big so I am not considering one. For those interested in the piece, Do you think 187K is a reasonable price point or do you think it will have to be discounted for them to sell through? Does the overall lack of performance of the 5270 family on the secondary market in general give you concern or do you consider this piece an outlier? I realize we buy these pieces to wear and enjoy and if they maintain value it is just an added bonus but the 5270Gs and R sell for substantially less than list and are easily available. Not trolling or anything like that as I love Patek Philippe, I just would like to get some insight into what other collectors think about this.

Great points to think about when you consider the cost of this watch. It is beautiful and I am sure it will be admired for many years, but will it loose a lot of value? Is that something that concerns those of us thinking about buying it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think this model's market price ultimately will depend on how many are made. * https://www.revolution.watch/making-...ippe-ref-5970/ |

I think it will be an easy watch to find and buy. MSRP seems high to me. Try to sell it preowned to a dealer and my guess is you might have a hard time getting 125K for it.

Those are certainly my concerns!!!!! Most likely I won’t be an early adopter until we see how it all plays out

Agreed.... especially when you see things like this beautiful 3970P sell for $103k all in today at auction (which in my opinion should be worth more than 5270s long term). Oh well.... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
