What's being discontinued in 2020
Seems the 5711A white dial is going....and before anyone asks...I was told this by my son's girlfriend whose mother is a hairdresser and happens to do the hair of the doorman and a small out of town retailer

Is this serious. You have just ruined my holiday vacation. One one year wait has stretched to two.

If enough people tell you blue is great you will believe it....few have the courage to admit that when they slid their "grail" onto their wrists ir wasnt the trumpeting of Angel's they were hearing but someone saying "you mean this is it?"

The only blue dials are the 5711P, 5740G and 5980AR
Quote:
The white dial 5726 was a dog. Everyone said it was too thick, apertures too small, unbalanced....it was also one of the rarest. Chuck a blue dial on the same thick, ungainly, unbalanced watch and the wait list springs to eternity!!! Did it suddenly get thinner, lighter and more balanced or we just fickle? |

I’ve come to prefer the white 5711 over the blue. I hope to add one to my collection eventually.

To increase demand Patek is discontinuing the 5711 blue. I heard this from my neighbor and he is homeless.

I have it on good authority that the 5980/1R is getting discontinued in favor of a 5990/1R, possibly. I'd love both. :(
Still waiting for my 5980/1R. And for my 5711/1A White. Others are coming in, thankfully, but not those that are rumored to be discontinued. I hate the discontinuation game. I really did want the 5726/1A White. :( |

Nobody told me anything but I think the 5270p will be discontinued.
I think the 5990 and 5726a (strap) may both go too. |
