This is a piece that retails at £140k + so the market is always going to be limited compared to much lower priced pieces and will always command strong residuals especially when it is discontinued.
I have a constant mental battle with myself that I turned mine down but it simply didn’t suit me - still love it and congrats to all those who have one or are expecting one.
The point I was trying to make was that the 5270P has been in the market only for a couple of months and already selling below retail and good deals will be available in the next couple of years. 5270G and R have been discontinued and residuals are not strong. Even 5204P -010 residuals are not strong. It is a good time to but but not at retail.

Congrats! It’s a beautiful thing, cutting the seal on this watch.

if you keep it sealed it will only loose 30% of its value in the next five years!

Congrats on the 5270P and 15407ST. 5270P was not included in the 2019 discontinue list and will be produced throughout 2019

Cut it and wear it. It’s truly incredible on the wrist. Yes, I’m biased, but still...

Interesting that the earlier poster got the watch sealed. I thought this was now completely prohibited by Patek? Or does it imply sealed pieces are still going out the back door to the greys?

All I saw as I scrolled down the discussions was a noticeable absent of Audemars Piquet, so for viewing pleasure my 14800ST.

Can never get enough of this watch.

Seeing a photo of the 5270 pops here is almost the same as watching Miranda Kerr strutting on the runway - so near yet impossibly far.

Thanks, guys!

A tough watch to photograph and capture the dial.
