That 5726 looks pretty dark in the photo. But the 5168G doesn't look green there either..... might just be the photo.

Doesn't the chrono have a faint 5070 aura, with ref to the arabic numerals, bezel and round case...

The new 5726 is another PATEK HOME RUN! And probably will have long wait times.

Wondering if it will take some pressure off the 5712 and 5711...

Please add the new Pilot version! If they look good in pictures, in person Patek's seem to even look better and more irresistible.

The aftermarket value of the 5711/1a and the 5712/1a (and Aquanauts) will continue to climb given these purported lackluster releases. Demand will continue to be insatiable. Other than the 5726/1a (which benefits from the rising tide of all boats in the Nautilus line - reference to the ocean intentional), what from these new releases will take demand away from them?

Code 11.59 is a revolutionary design, but don't get me wrong, I don't like it. This Patek release on the other hand is very, very conservative and low-risk across the board. Mostly just minor tweaks to existing pieces except for the Calatrava, the Pilot, and the 6300. The 6300 is prob the only piece that people might actively dislike similar to the Code 11.59 but then again it will be out of reach for most just like the Pilot...

I think it’s day-date with pointers.

agree 100%... its already a tough sell for me for a 5524G. Its still a pilot, a very very nice one. getting that high for a pilots watch is a little nuts

Thought so but the Calatrava seems to have a normal date window. May be an AC w day+month with pointers... and it is actually 5 rather than 4 hands. Will be patient now and stop speculating!

Kind of disappointed with the 5212a. The blue on the 5726 looks like it will be nice. I still would go ahead and order both the 5726 and 5168g. The 5172 case looks way too large (very similar to that 5905). Might of just worked if they didnt add pump pushers. The 5170p should hold strong and may go up a bit..

I like the 5231J but not impressed with the others.

Maybe because I´m too poor for a 5078.

I think I like the 5172 the most and can appreciate the 5235 as better than the white gold version.
But that's about it.

the 5726a-014 appears to be a gradient blue black similar to the 5170p

Could you imagine reaching for your nightstand in the wee early morning, all groggy, trying to slam off the alarm on your $200,000 5520p?!??!

I really like the looks and complications of the 5520p, but at $200k, it will be a pass.
