5327R is a stunner and classic Patek. Doesn’t get much better with the rose and ivory combo and the breguet numerals finish off that gorgeous dial perfectly. Just a beautiful timepiece, congrats!

Congratulations Michael. Awesome watch. All the best.

Very nice. Having seen the blue dial in person, I think you made the right decision. The contrast between the RG case and the dial is great. Congratulations.

Congrats!

thats a beauty many congrats

myporsche · 4 July 2020, 06:49 PM

Congratulations and wonderful choice. Love the applied breguets and color choice, although I would be tempted by the blue also but this seems easier to read and more versatile. I'm a big fan of the 240 and the PC complication belongs on a Patek. Very classy, enjoy.

benlee · 4 July 2020, 06:52 PM

That's super nice!

Congrats Michael

Pls post more pics. Btw, did you considered the blue dial version as well?

Thanks Ben! Yes I wanted to buy the blue initially, but having seen the R in the boutique alongside the R, I was convinced I needed to add the R instead because of the warmth of the case and dial colours. The blue is fantastic also but I simply have too many blue watches.

Congratulations on this new incoming. I was torn between this and the 5320g last yr. I ended up buying the 5320g because I was on the list for the 5740

Thanks! The 5320g is a brilliant PC, I wish I have bigger wrist for it.

sensui · 6 July 2020, 08:02 AM

All class here. The breuget numerals are exquisite. Huge congrats!

enjoythemusic · 6 July 2020, 11:01 PM

That is a truly lovely timepiece. Only quibble is that i wish it had Breguet hands.

RoscoPico · 7 July 2020, 12:59 AM

awesome ! saw one at the AD a few weeks back and I know how you feel

Congrats. How about a picture of the 240q 😊

aj_tucker · 8 July 2020, 10:27 AM

The dial looks so warm; the numerals so elegant; and the watch looks flexible enought o be worn in multiple situations. I could see if looking equally smart in a non-black suit, collared shirt / business casual, light sweatshirt and faded denim, and even shorts and a tee shirt. You've gotta keeper, my friend!

psv · 8 July 2020, 10:39 AM

That is spectacular - big congrats!

MadSpaniard · 8 July 2020, 09:31 PM

@Ichiran: congrats on a fantastic piece. I have the other scalloped lug family members 5227R and 5205R both with white/cream-colored dial, so I would agree on your choice of the cream. The blue is excellent but as you point out, the cream seems a little more warm and timeless. If I were to get a perpetual to complete the "scalloped lug triumvirate", the 5327R would be the one.

You are a fortunate man indeed, enjoy your new watch, cheers.

Thanks mate! I'm particularly drawn to the case and lug design of the 5227/5205/5327 family of Pateks. At times I found myself just staring at the side of the case.

Great choice. I love it.

Brijsons · 14 July 2020, 08:19 PM

Congrats Ichiran,

just one question out curiosity.... how does one maintain a perpetual watch. is it something we wear 4 days a week and when u dont wear - you put it on a winder or its more of a buy and keep in safe kind stuff which u take out once in a blue moon & dont worry about the day/date mismatch.

new to the world of Perpetual.

Thanks!

This watch comes with a cylinder (like a winder), which turns a predetermined number of times per hour to keep the watch going when not in used. This cylinder is powered by 4 batteries. The remaining life (by %) of the batteries can be set up to show on your smartphone, hence when it is time to change batteries, it will prompt you via your smartphone. So far this watch is on my wrist all the time so I do not have the chance to put inside the cylinder yet.
