5070P
if you are slated to get the 5070P, your AD most likely would have confirmed with you by now... otherwise, most likely you won't get one. having said that, i'd take the 5070p if offered. the 5960P has been more "available" among US AD's this year, based on my AD conversations... however, it's still relatively rare and hard to get. so if you're not confirmed to get the 5070P ( placing an order doesn't mean anything in my book, since you're just on the "list" ), then get the next best thing, which is the 5960P per your own wish list.
Available on the marketplace
2,850 Patek Philippe listings are live on the eBay market and 1721 collector listings on the WatchProSite marketplace.

i suggest that you do not look
through the crystal back of the 5070s. as i recall the ref 2512 made in the 1950s had a huge case with a nouvelle lemania movement and is considered very much by avid collectors. i personally do not like huge cases but i will make exceptions for the 5070s...
5070P
I just got mine and i would openly announce here that it is an amazing piece and the 5960 stands nowhere in competition, that is nowhere mate.
