It may not be as high profile as the salmon-platinum version, but the blue dial has a calm, understated beauty. The winding and chronograph action are superb, the best I have ever experienced. It might not be the most popular perpetual calendar chronograp...

Patek Philippe

5270G-019 my first grand complication of Patek Philippe.

I don’t like the PP salmon dials on my wrist (they look great on others).

Thank you, Jon. I remember in the old times, blue dial was only reserved for the special piece in PP, e.g. the 5970P with blue dial for the duchenne muscular dystrophy charity fund.

I like the symmetry and balance of that dial

Thank you, Cazalea. It does have the beauty of symmetry. Regrettably the love towards 5270 is less intense than that of 5970 in the watch community.....

Looks great!

Thank you, Champ. Perpetual calendar is truly the pinnacle of horology IMHO. The addition of chronograph just makes it better :)

I am with you 1000% 😁

Your 001 with brush dial is special!

Fresh figs! So good!

Thank you, Patrick. These are from Turkey. Tasty and good for health!

Lovely!

But that’s what it needs to be - loved by you 😊👍🏻

Thank you, KM. Indeed. Fortunately I didn't part with it earlier on.....

If it sings to your heart. It is always a joy. To own and pleasure to wear, Henry. Congratulations to owning this piece. 😊

Thank you, Geross. It may not be the most eye catching one, but it's subtle and elegant. Cheers, Henry

Go big or go home : )

Thank you, mdg. It's certainly not a small watch, yet still wearing comfortably and elegantly on wrist :)

Certainly...

Fantastic! and in my opinion- I like it much better in Blue 😊 something for

Thank you, Rastro. Totally agree. The heterogeneity of preferences is certainly great.

That’s a spectacular piece! That blue is very dynamic - bright blue here vs greyish in other images I have see. Fantastic choice.

Thank you, ChetBaker. It's indeed a dynamic one. Somehow it looks/ feels slightly fainter after 10 years of time, which is great IMHO, sort of "patina" either genuinely or perceptually ;)

Hi Henry, the blue dial looks

Thank you, Gordon.

Nice one, Henry!

Thank you, my friend. My decision at that time was simpler, just one PCC for me to choose from.

Beautiful

Thank you, Miguel. It does earn my love :)

I once thought of letting it go after getting 5270P.

With so many versions...

Do you have several of them?

Only these 2...

Ha!!!

Beautiful👌🏼 Especially with these straps 👍🏻

Thank you.

Looking good.

Thank you, Goh. We both have two 5270 on hands. Your 018 is equally beautiful!

Great complication, beautiful dial, wonderful watch 🥳

Thank you, Watchlover!

It’s a beauty. This blue is special.

Thank you, Gary. Guess it isn't being hated, but just having lukewarm response from the watch community in general.

That’s all that matters!
