If you were given the choice to be given (and subsequently keep)

salmon 5270p

or

5711a/5712a/5164a

what would you take?

SimpleMan91 · 22 March 2019, 09:18 AM

Choice B

Easy for me - definitely the 5270p. The other 3 are great watches, but I wouldn't want/need all three of those. That is WAY too much bezel to scratch.

For fun, the best alternative (although not an option in your hypothetical) is the 5270p and the 5712/1a.

A, no doubt.

AK797 · 22 March 2019, 10:10 AM

I'd take A now, if I had nothing I'd take B.

good point - for you folks, you have trade in any nautilus and aquanaut already in your possession to qualify.

Dlindsay · 22 March 2019, 11:24 AM

Option B, not a fan of the pink dial.

ts3 · 22 March 2019, 11:38 AM

Would want to sell the travel time though or trade into 5167A or R.

B. That is a killer collection.

subtona · 22 March 2019, 02:36 PM

5711 is timeless.

5270 will be upstaged by a new or old release.

GB-man · 22 March 2019, 03:15 PM

Is this a trick? I’ll take the free 5270P please!

BT1985 · 22 March 2019, 03:46 PM

5270p all day.

Choice B any day. You get 3 watches that can be worn at all occasions!

andyol1966 · 22 March 2019, 06:20 PM

5270p is in a different league to the other three! I love the Nauts and Aqua, but given the choice I would have 5270p any day (and a Rolex as my beater). Not a fair comparison in my book!

Vipes · 23 March 2019, 01:16 AM

option B is more versatile for me

jcoltrane · 23 March 2019, 01:20 AM

The nautilus and aquanaut are in wild demand, but the fact of the matter is neither of those showcase Patek's true skill. 5270P does, but my opinion would be to get one of each because they're all wonderful watches. The only reason I say this is if 5270P is on the table, adding 5711 and 5164 shouldn't be that big of a stretch. You wouldn't need to buy another watch at that point, sell the rest if you have to, because you'd have about the most perfect 3-watch collection

APAP · 23 March 2019, 01:39 AM

5270P no contest. I’d take a grand complication over any pretty face way he’s anytime.

francoamerican · 23 March 2019, 06:02 AM

Loving the diversity and balance of opinion!

CamSLC · 23 March 2019, 09:47 AM

I'll take A. No stipulation that I need to change my current collection. :))

CoveWatch · 23 March 2019, 10:06 AM

I love the 5270P but prefer the 3 here

tchaic · 23 March 2019, 10:19 AM

The voting here makes no sense. Does everyone know what a 5270 P is?
