If you like, I can ask my friend to trade his chromatic for ...
one of your twins.
Hi All, after searching high and low for more 5131G chrome enamel dial, here for your enjoyment are more...
photos ! Original post on this interesting matter: www.watchprosite.com / What do you think about the chrome dial and why it looks so shiny ? Base gold plate coming through , different enamel powders and technique , or something else ? Please let ...
Love the 5131 ! Extremely tempted to pick one up..
but the metal conundrum is real. Would need all three R G and P, and 5231J haha !
I think I'd go with the G
Having no ties to America and a lot of family history in Europe Asia Africa and Oceania, it would be the most logical map. However, seeing it as a "traveler's" watch - the P is probably the most exotic as colder climates really aren't my favourite and I n...
Remember... Nike slogan of...
“just do it !!” Looking forward to your 5131G wrist shots !!
Haha thanks !
Maybe not this year as I have an important piece coming soon ! But as soon as a 5131 makes it way to the family I'll be sure to share some shots for sure !
Not sure I'll be able to financially haha
But the want is real and might make me crack and go for it this year
Painful financially buying in the secondary market and so much...
joy when you get the 5131G !
Agreed the P is fantastic !
However I feel like they have produced a fair bit. I also think it's a shame they put the holes in the lugs so far from the case, makes for a rather odd look when wearing it on a strap. It is fabulous on the bracelet and a first of its kind for sure ! I d...
You're right about delivery this year (in part because of the Covid crisis), but the P is still in the current catalog so I hope you can get one allocated before it's discontinued! ;-)
Once I was told by Patek the plan was not to produce more, in total, than the other colors, though of course it's always difficult to plan on exact production numbers. However, if they release less this year (this is its third in the catalog) and then off...
I think I see far less 5131P after three years than 523J....due to production runs we see a splurge coming to owners
At a single time and this may give the impression of large numbers. The P on secondary is def not as strong at JGR but that’s also a possible function of price and bracelet.
That's true we do see a lot of 5231 !
I have noticed G R and J 5131s have dipped slightly in price recently, a friend told me a dealer picked up a G for 55GBP and sold for 65GBP so prices have been going down a little, or maybe just this dealer and client got lucky, no clue
Absolutely !
I was surprised my friend didn't call me immediately as he knows I would have pulled the trigger in a heartbeat ! You win some you lose some, so is life !
Wow 🤩 GBP65k is a good price for the buyer in the secondary market assuming the watch is in...
reasonable shape ! Do you know whether it has the chrome dial ?
Think prices will soften but that’s still seriously out the ball park. I treat most those with tongue in
Cheek. Dealers are a shrewd bunch and they wouldn’t have to sell that low...... Yet!!!!
Agree Karl, we’ve seen “many” more 5231J than 5131P, also because one is starting while the other is phasing out production...
But the 5231J are still very few, I’m pretty sure many ADs have yet to see one😉 I also think the bracelet is a factor in the “softer“ prices for the P, I love the bracelet but it’s an understandable market reaction when its price tag is essentially half t...
Yes paying MSRP is always best that's for sure..
I hope to get allocated one but we'll just have to wait and see All the best, M.
The chromatic gives almost a 3D effect to the world but then I suddenly noticed what made it look so different
...there is no shallow water in the oceans on the chrome
Lovely fraternal twins 👯♀️ that look like...
identical twins at first glance ! Upon inspection, they are so different and each is unique ! Enjoy them both more often by wearing one on each wrist ! 😇
