I can't confirm, but I think the subject line should start a nice little discussion here.

Thanks for the support, and if you can give me pointers on how best to use this forum let me know i'm a newbie, as I'm sure you can tell.

Nice idea but black face deserves p metal surely! �� Very user friendly site here and lots of friendly down to earth people. Some very serious enablers too!

Hamish · 3 August 2015, 09:29 PM

100% agree with Roger.
Black face P would be interesting however I think it will be hard to beat the current version

RussW · 3 August 2015, 09:33 PM

Would be interested to see how that dial works. Isn't one of the selling points of the 5235 the brushed dial?

As Roger says it's a very friendly site. Just post away and you'll be fine

I'd love to hear your thoughts on your 5170g black dial.

Slider817 · 3 August 2015, 09:48 PM

Brushed black enamel? Grand Feu anyone?

it's a super watch, i love it to be honest. At first I thought the size would be an issue since i'm a 5070 addict, but i'm wrong it's perfect. I know people don't like the dropped chrono but it works, really does. Let's hope Patek doesn't over produce this piece like it has with many other reference and completely screw up the market on them.

thomaspp · 3 August 2015, 10:30 PM

That would be interesting. Maybe even harder to read than the current though! Rolf

Your IG feed is great btw!

some very quick PS and….??

raclaims · 4 August 2015, 01:53 AM

no thanks.
the brushed dial is what makes this watch so cool and unique (well aside from being a regulator)

I love, love, love the dial as it is.

Thanks. It's really high on my wish list - I think you are the first owner on the forum, so good to hear your view. I tried one on a few weeks ago and was really impressed.

Hey bro - welcome to TRF.

There are some very well informed users on here. There aren't many real pointers - just post any questions or topics for debate and then take it from there.

CWIN · 4 August 2015, 05:23 AM

IMO, the dial is perfect as is with the brushed look and blue accents. It's the best part of the 5235G.

ju5t1nb · 4 August 2015, 09:10 AM

I thought i'd finish what i started. It's not the best job, but i kind of like it

conkers · 4 August 2015, 09:32 AM

Not bad at all! I like it!

incontrol · 4 August 2015, 11:27 AM

Your black dial seems a little easier to read than the brushed original!

kneedeep · 4 August 2015, 11:32 AM

Not much better contrast than white against black, but that brushed dial is unique.

IMO this looks much better than the original. Patek needs to offer you a job!

JZ welcome to TRF and good to see you here. As for black 5235 it could be nice addition but imagine it would be tough to read unless executed perfectly. I like the mock up above with white hands and that could do the trick. Look forward to more of your posts...Cheers, K

Racerdj · 5 August 2015, 09:29 AM

I hope this happens and logically it should. However, probably my advise has and will not be asked for in the future.

5235 with that dark blue of the 5726 mock up above could be nice.
