Have been offered this by my AD. It’s a grail watch and at this cost has to be an end watch!
I’ve a 5990 used almost daily plus a few Rolex Sports incl. Daytona Ceramic.

How much regular use do owners really get out of these? If they’re kept as safe queens then I take it’s constant setting each time for special occasions only.

Daytona is only worn occasionally because too much recognition already, but guess a Patek PCC bit less recognisable?

I have 2 friends who own a 5270P and they both use it regularly.

I got it maybe two weeks ago or something and is wearing if probably half of the time.

benzng · 28 February 2021, 07:42 PM

three times a week for me

AK797 · 28 February 2021, 09:08 PM

If I had a PCC I would wear it most of the time, which is one reason why I am in no hurry to crackdown on my rotational collection.

vandyologist · 28 February 2021, 11:42 PM

I wear mine quite a lot. 1-2 days a week in a 12 watch rotation.

mrmoto88 · 1 March 2021, 02:29 AM

Thanks all, glad to hear these are worn as intended!

Is it WoS that have offered you this by any chance?

I think this will be my next purchase so I am following this with interest. I am worried that because it's a manual watch I will end up not wearing it once I forget to wind it for the first time.

Also OP can I ask if you have considered grey for this watch? I have never bought a grey as I prefer building up my AD profile. But for this particular watch there is a possible £25k saving by going grey. Plus like you this would be my "end" watch so what other kudos would I actually need from the AD after this?

Wear mine daily, gets more time than my Nautilus and Rolex

Not WoS, but the grey pricing is something which is making me hesitate to pay full MSRP! Ah, by end watch 5270P/J planned to have been my last purchase but am still waiting for my blue 5726A which is the pre-end end watch!

So, purchases out of sequence but that’s all I’ve got planned

Dont have a 5270 but do have a Lange Datogragh Perpetual ( very similar). I wear it all the time. Funny thing is that it gets more compliments than any of my others watches of course no-one knows what it is. I found this interesting as I would never expected that.

mcch2233 · 2 March 2021, 06:19 AM

Saw this in the metal last week - such a fantastic watch! Unfortunately it's well outside of my budget, but I could certainly see it getting a lot of use.

vandyologist · 2 March 2021, 08:41 AM

Happy perpetual calendar day!

mrmoto88 · 2 March 2021, 08:54 AM

Bet that would have been fun to watch the change from 28/2! Thanks for sharing!

Agreed. It's simply amazing.

Calatrava r · 3 March 2021, 05:26 AM

As its basically a daily winder, it should be handy and worn regularly when the moment calls even if just for an hour or two at the end of the day.

For a grail watch like that, I’d wear that most days if not all.

if i had that watch, it would be my daily watch and i would probably trim down my collection big time.
two things make me hesitate about the white metal 5270:
1- PP made so much of them (G and P)
2- if i look at the 3970, i feel that the yellow gold is the one that aged the best (to my surprise).
so at this point in time, i would choose the 5270J over the 5270P

kocero · 11 March 2021, 03:23 AM

I bought a year ago. Salmon is unique and amazing. Also it is a great investment. How much is MSRP?

mrmoto88 · 11 March 2021, 08:02 AM

Sounds like owners can use these as a daily watch which would be best, since resetting can take a bit of time.
At £158,470 as per the UK PP website then hope to get a lot of use out of it!

Fantastic watch but winding it everyday is either a chore or a ritual; depending on your perspective. I wear mine often, but am cognizant where I will be going and what I will be doing. Most people will never notice it, unlike a 5k Omega!

No such thing as "our last watch"

Keeping a close eye on this thread for possible inspiration if the time ever does come. I think if it wasn't for COVID and how much my lifestyle has changed in the last year or so, I would have pulled the trigger by now (presently I'm wearing a £4 t-shirt as I type and haven't had a haircut in three months, so not exactly feeling my best self!)

Hermann · 14 March 2021, 04:54 AM

How long will the 5270P stay in production ?
Has anyone an idea?
Another question to the 5270P owners which in watch box you get the watch... I am asking because of the pt case back...
