The new ref 5326 - annual calendar with travel time
The standout, for me, amongst the latest releases from Patek, is the ref. 5326. This has to be the most practical watch they have released in quite some time; automatic winding with annual calendar and travel time. The Travel Time function can be adjusted...
Very much in agreement regarding the interest of this reference, it's technically a major novelty with several new patents required for an entirely new AC & TT combo (see also its dedicated press releases from the other thread and the technical video)!
Hope it will be offered in the future with a dial you like better! Cheers.
Maybe we can get this complication combo in an Aquanaut case for the 25th anniversary
Haha, one can always hope!
Or...
Imagine if this was in a new Nautilus as well with a GREEN dial?!? So in addition to the 5726...now you have one that has also a TT and Annual !!
Nice review and technical explanation
Not sure if everyone saw this review on the watch but it explains how setting the date and time is simultaneous so when traveling do not need to worry that setting the travel time will need to set the calendar as well. See link:
Fauxtina
Fully agree - The retro look is, for me, a deal killer - especially the beige fauxtina lume. And 42 hour power reserve - not so practical.
I hope they crank these out to be more accessible!
that they end up in the hands of enthusiasts who appreciate the features instead of speculators who only care about price charts
Great one!
I really enjoy this one. Targeting a more « modern » Audience…! Retro modern adventurer style! Really considering getting one…
Such a charming useful watch. Wonderful picture. 👍
Does anyone know the size of this watch and thickness. A cool watch. 😊 Geross.
41mm X 11mm
The most interesting new release from PP. I prefer it on the black/grey fabric strap. The dial effect is outstanding and the overall casual sportiness in an otherwise dressy piece is spot on for this day and age. MSRP is also.... well, interesting, even f...
A novel combination of complications! 👍
I need to get used to the textured dial though.
Thank you amanico.
That is what I thought reflections look perfect on both watches. Regards
I actually quite like this dial colour.
Perhaps I’m in the minority, but it does appeal to me - strong preference for the darker fabric strap! All the best, Niall
A great complication
At 41mm, I think it's too large. The complications are absolutely the most practical and I love the layout. For me if this was 39mm, even 40mm, and had a black date window like the time-only version, it would be a home run.
Nice but ...
As everyone said, it is difficult to deny a lot of charm to this new watch, especially when you look at the back as the movement is the same basis as the latest QP in line, but i have found 2 major drawbacks for me : 1- the day / month windows are too sma...
