First few days with my grail 5270R

I would like to thank all the Purist members for their generosity with their knowledge. I have been a long time member and collector of Patek Philippe. After much thought and research I finally took the plunge and acquired my grail watch this week. I am s...

Looks amazing πŸ‘ŒπŸ»πŸ˜˜

Biggest congrats! The R version of the 5270 is a real beauty.

I hope after a period of acclimatization the watch will accompany you in your every day life. It’s simply relieving having such a beauty on the wrist during sometimes boring business meetings πŸ˜„

I decided that today would be the day to test drive the 5270 at work. I made sure to wear a shirt and sport coat that would offer protection to the watch. Going well so far. ...  

Wow, wow... not sure how one feels to finally get the grail of this hobby...

I am still Awestruck!

Exit watch!

 
 By: Costa (aka Connie) : January 17th, 2018-16:58
I have often thought that the 5270 would be my exit watch. Is there really such a thing?

"Exit Watch...'

 
 By: mdg : January 17th, 2018-18:40
...do you mean exit as in 'the last watch you will buy/collect'? Or do you mean exit as 'the watch that will be on your wrist when you meet the great watchmaker in the sky'? Either way, it's a great term... Fantastic watch as well btw.

I never thought of the other meaning.

 
 By: Costa (aka Connie) : January 17th, 2018-18:48
I mean β€œexit” as the last watch I will collect. That is β€œexit” watch collecting and stick with one watch forever.

Not gonna happen, I hope..:-)

Because if it does, then it would mean your passion for watches is also over, and you won't want to wear that one fancy watch forever either.. Just my two bitcoins, of course.

Good point.

After all this is a kind of sickness.

Spectacular watch the Patek 5270. I am sure it was well deserved.

My mini-collection includes PP, AP, ALS but 5270r is my favorite and THE ULTIMATE watch if one day I decide to have only 1 grail...this would be it. Great acquisition and wear in good health!

Wow. What a great piece.

I am so very pleased for you reaching to your grail watch. The thought terrifies me as that would signal the end of the hobby for me. You have certainly chosen a stunning watch and out of all the 5270’s the Pink version is my favourite by a long way. Enjo... 

Congratulations to you.....

.....That is a beautiful and stunning watch. It combines complications with great flair. Enjoy your watch and may it bring you much pleasure over the coming years. Best Joe

Massive congratulations, Constantine.

I’m really glad you did it. She looks great on you (and not too big at all). Best, Volker

Thanks very much.

I am still getting used to the fact that I own this watch. I love how the opaline dial works very well with the rose gold. It make the watch appear very warm.

Congratulations. A true icon, the Patek PCC.

Wear it in great health, once you get around to it.

Congrats fantastic watch

A BIG congratulations on acquiring your "ultimate" watch!! For me, the perpetual chronograph represents the best of Patek.

 
 By: patekova : January 18th, 2018-11:52
Normally on a complicated watch like this I would prefer a white metal, but not on 5270. The rose is the one! Enjoy for many years! Best, patekova

Thank you.

 
 By: Costa (aka Connie) : January 18th, 2018-12:55
Yes I was considering the 5270G-001 and 018. I liked them both. However the warmth and the look of the rose gold was very hard to beat. It really is an amazing look , rose gold and opaline dial.

Many many congratulations!!!
