That's unusual.

Probably was a 2020 launch that was deferred to 2021 due to the pandemic then?

This year new releases for ladies were also available for purchase on the same day. A guy in Taiwan already posted his 5711 green incoming.

That 5990 is a beast.

It’s easy to criticise and I guess I am I just hope Patek haven’t gone down the green path due to the hype from Rolex. That would be my greatest disappointment

the same guy got all three refs - he has a crazy watch collection by all accounts and so must be at the top of the pecking order

In awe.
Platonic love.

Looking at the pic above I don't like the mods to the date. I prefer no frame and the old font such as on 5711 blue. That font has the vintage / timeless vibe of the watch itself whereas the new, fat font looks very modern and a little out of place in my eyes.

Other than that the green one has been growing on me overnight...

Where is your incoming post? I would have expected you to get one, or does the green stick out like a sore thumb with all your other blue dials

I love all 3 (green, baguette and the RG 5990) but my AD will not be gifting me these fabulous releases. Maybe there is a possibility of the RG 5990 in the future. Nonetheless my AD has been fantastic to me, and I have no complaints. I'm sure the green 5711 are going to their best customers.

You have a greater chance than me bro.

Are you picking up a streamliner, I enjoy mine immensely

Oryx · 9 April 2021, 03:46 AM

Have AD's started to inform people as to whether they will or will not be receiving an allocation to these pieces?

No text yet on my end

I'd still prefer the 5740 though if offered either of the two.

Not quite sure yet but the most exciting sports watch release last year IMO and topping the green 5711/1A in terms of want. Hoping for new dial colors for the Streamliner although I am slowly warming up to green.

I don't have a choice and I can only get the 5740 (next shipments). Not a bad ending though.

Daytonaman799 · 9 April 2021, 11:56 AM

The blue dial on the 5990 is awesome! I wish they used that color on the 5711 1/r.

And he just posted an incoming of his 6301p today.

He is only the 2nd person I know who bought the 6301p.

Same, suddenly I'm itching for a Matrix Green.

Patek_collector · 10 April 2021, 12:20 AM

the issue is that i bet grey prices will be at least 5 times for the 5711 and 2x3 times for the diamond and 5990R... at least... unfortunately.

Oryx · 12 April 2021, 03:20 PM

does anyone have any idea or guess on how many will be made with the diamond bezel versus without. I am assuming a 10/90 split?

Any idea how many 5711-014 and 5711/1300A-001 will be produced?

I spoke to the Patek Salon last week and they said they have received their allocation but didn't indicate any numbers.

Yes, but then again no matter how much money you spent with Patek I think they will not look kindly on a collector that immediately flips for profit. These watches go precisely to their loyal customers, people that buy and keep their watches.

If these watches continue to go strictly and precisely to their loyal customers, people that buy and keep their watches, then how do the greys continue to keep getting brand new unworn pieces every single month of every single year for the past x years?

Oryx · 12 April 2021, 10:05 PM

the models have been launched.

the annual calendar in steel looks interesting as does the new perpetual calendar.

nothing too ground breaking

The micro-rotor is platinum!

Oh wow.

mongrelnomoad · 12 April 2021, 10:50 PM

Apart from the fabulous 5236, these are so uninspired. Lovely watches, sure, but hardly exciting.

They missed a trick to broaden the appeal of the Calatrava line, despite having dabbled in it before with the NY pilot and new manufactory LEs. Increase water resistance, quick-change bracelets and leather and rubber straps, steel (just for giggles) and it'd be killer.

Thanks in advance

bob101 · 13 April 2021, 12:26 AM

Thankfully all of today’s releases far more interesting than what’s going on with the 5711 / next iteration Zzzz
