The return of the 5370P!
It’s on the PP website now. Which do you prefer more black enamel dial or this ?
I guess it has to be seen in the metal to be sure. The black was very cool. It depends of the hue of blue in my opinion. [nt]

They should have
used another model for these shots. The watch is way too large for this chap. Looks like a silly toy on him...
Personally feel that PP is just getting too predictable...same colors...same metals ....year in year out...yawn ....however the black for me [nt]

The black one was "badass" and so were the people I've met wearing a black dialed 5370. I say that as a positive compliment! [nt]

You might not remember but you met him...
...at a small GTG in Los Altos a couple of years ago : )
Ahh! I do remember!
There may be more than one in that little GTG with a 5370, unless we're both thinking of the same individual.
What a great strap for this watch...
...despite the pure elegance of the dial, it is after all a chronograph and therefore 'sporty.'
I was hoping they would come up with a 5370P with a blue enamel dial.
I really like the piece and seriously considering getting one. I was told blue enamel dial is harder to make than the black so that could reflect the slight price increase.
Not sure, white is certainly easier than black.
With regards to paint and ultra high finish cars then black is the most difficult colour to do due to it's lack of forgiveness for blemishes. I assume enamel is the same?
I was talking to Pete about a blue enamel dial on 5370P and it was he who told me blue enamel was difficult to make than black enamel which is also extremely difficult to make.
He also mentioned white was easier than black.
That’s odd as I definately heard PP avoid doing black dials generally due to the extra work Abd that includes the 5205R as well [nt]

We talked about this watch several months ago and what Pete M said was the blue enamel dial was harder to make compared to the black and white dials.
He didn't say black dial was easy to make. I think traditionally Patek has produced less blue enamel dials compared to black and white dials. 5205R-010 and 5227G-010 have black lacquered dials and the blue dial of 5205G -013 is not a lacquered dial.
If i know Russell he will research this and come back with a definitive answer...but bless him...I have heard Peter M also state that the 5372P takes
A single watchmaker a whole year to finish!!
