Just for the pleasure of looking ...
some pictures of the PP 5270:
The "brushed" dial and the shape of the almost black indexes are details which I like a lot.
On the wrist it looks not that different as classical PP´s from the past - on the first view (only) ...
... but if you look closer a lot of details have changed.
The back side? Well, it is up to you to judge
Hope you liked that quick set of pictures.

Nice...
... no pics will render the real thing though. The blue strap matches very well. I chose that pics which is not very clear but its the one that shows best how the dial shines and contrast with the oxidized index and hands.
Fricks, I like that PPP ...

The blue strap looks very good to me, but now you have to change the interior ... or the car ...

Wow, superb
Great pics Oliver, thanks. I am slightly confused though, this is white gold right (I believe it only comes in that metal)? as it gives off a very rose gold feel to it, which gives it a wonderful warmth and a new dimension.... lovely timepiece!!!
"The dial is the signature piece!"
I agree, the dials at PP are worth to look in detail - most of the time. The Stern family started with dails and still seems to be keen on to do a perfect job.
Thanks!

Thanks!

5270 pop of the pops
true they started with dial and enamel dials as well. Their dials seems alive, they interact with the surrounding, changing all the time and giving a different feel to the watch depending of the situation. I think this is why we keep on falling deeper in love with time, as we discover them. Even after wearing it for more than a year i keep on discovering new details.
Myopiccoog, that picture, that angle, that light
makes the 5270 look the most appealing I have seen it look--it really looks like an evolution of the 5970.
"this is white gold right"
Indeed, just the light was far from being perfect. But I agree it should be nice in RG as well
Thanks!
Oliver
Thanks!

I definitely prefer the looks of the 5270 to the 5402...
I know that it is not a split second chronograph but I find it nicer than the 5402. Thank you for the pictures Oliver.
Cheers, Francois
Only one is from Patek ...
and the latter one is from AP, isn´t it?
Francois, I guess you were talking about 5204 but just couldn´t resist
Oliver
ps: The same happened to a "well-known" blogger, when he reported after Basel. It is still online

A pleasure indeed
but there are one or two things that are disturbing me.
First, I really don't like this dial material and the way it is treated. In the mean time I see that many here appreciate it like that. A question of tastes I guess.
Furthermore, I'm not sure I like the dark indexes as they are integrated on these Pateks (5270 and 5204). For me, this kind of modern stuff doesn't fit the classical watch it is.
I'm sorry about that as I really like the movement and the engineering that is underneath.
Maybe a happy ending with another metal version (RG, Pt)?
Wait and see!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and the pictures Olvier
Cheers,

mark, respect you thoughts. I believe the 5270 is an in person watch. It never looks great in pics in my opinion. The dial in person takes on many personalities depending on environment. That is why owners like myself love the watch. Pardon my ignorance, do you own a 5270?
I also think it is more retro than modern. They were going for the look of the 3970 with this watch vs the 2499 or the 5970..
Re: Dial
Hi M',
That's indeed what was my conclusion.
Watchmaking is a field in which opinions remain very subjective.
I don't have a 5270 but have tried it on in the parisian boutique, as I have seen also the 5235 (same dial look).
I looked at it from every angle but this is something I'm sure I don't appreciate. It's a personnal feeling there and I'm sorry I don't feel differently as it is a great watch.
Congratz for yours, it's an important item among the whole Patek's collections.
But not for me in that layout.
Cheers.
Finally
A Patek that is timeless! And beautiful and not so busy with the dial. Clean, cool and just a must have!
Its been a long time waiting. Since the last series 2499 Patek has not made a nice perpetual chronograph in my opinion.
This one will be an Icon the rest will not. Except ofcourse for the 2499....! That is the non-plus ultra of all in my view.
Thank you for the post- I enjoyed it! Great pictures. E
Oliver, it'd be more than a pleasure starring at
your masterpiece, many will reach climax and endless nights of wet dreams!
The movement is a stunner! Patek is always a winner!
