2 masterpieces of modern PCC

Sep 17, 2020,20:49 PM
 

I already owned  PP chronograph & perpetual calender models.

I was sufficiently satisfied with them so  did not go further,in othe words,was not interested in grand complication models(excepting for #5370P).

For, I seldome use their function and could not imazine I would master grand Comp. 

But this year,I come across #5270P and was deeply impressed this salmon dial. Different from copper colour such as used in #5496P-014.

And I got it.


Looking #5270P every day,I gradually beeing attracted its well balanced dial design itself,despite not using their mechanical function .

And I recognized again that one of the biggest element of charm on PP is definately the beauty of appearance.

So the fence of my prudence on Gra.Com. model has been removed this summer.


I had a chance to see vintage #1518 & #2499 last year in the auction preview in Japan. But they did not touch my heart as much as I had heard in advance from my friend.

He said me that every Patek collector would eventually want them.But I did not feel so at that time.


The other day I had a chance to see #5970P and fell in love with it soon. I understood why many senior friend on this ProSite compliment #5970.

Platinum is superior than other material model for me. It looks tight than official size date(40mm) and especailly prefarable . Including subtle hands.

It was so expensive but I coud not give up #5970P


Now they are with me.

I am worried about what happiness punishment will be.

Amazing color on the 5270P

Love that dial color on the 5270P! It can certainly look different under different light...more orange/pink in certain circumstances. Must be an amazing piece to wear! Congrats on both and wear in good health!

exactly! [nt]

I so love that Salmon dial . Thanks for sharing

Huge congrats, Anaroku. 5970P is certainly the grail watch among all Patek grail watches.

The proportion of the watch and the dial are simply perfect. 5270P's salmon is indeed special, but the proportion of 5970P is simply unbeatable. Wish I also also get a 5970P in later part of my horology journey. Enjoy these two beauties and wear them ofte... 

thank you joenghenry

5970P is my dream watch and I will own it one day! For 5270 series - I think the R version is very underrated but so amazing once is put on the wrist.

Well thought out acquisitions

IMO Nothing to be hesitant about post purchase. It should be a pleasure to sacrifice for a while to support this very special financial transaction. Best, Robert

Fantastic choices!
