Have to disagree here! 5270 is by far superior
The design is always debatable, but technically the 5270 is a top inhouse movement.
It has a complex build minute counter, starts possibly much smoother and stops more accurately and is in flyback function much more
gentle to the movement.
I have to saz possibly smoother as I did not compare both and have to rely on literature.
I would choose this one, especially if I see that the second market is asking for the same price for a 5970 as for the 5270.
We are all different, but who is agreeing to such a deal???
There is only one flaw in the 5270 that I will not mention anymore, as I did quite often before.

Follow up on the 5270 in a London AD window...
Happily, the 5270 I saw in a London AD's window just before Christmas is "sold" and hopefully with an appreciative new owner who is enjoying his watch. But what was surprising, as of today, the AD has three unallocated 5270s available from stock. Unfortun...
Don't get me wrong...
the 5270 is a stunning watch. It's just rather a lot of money! 120% more than I paid for my 3970ER six years ago! :-(
I couldn't agree more, Fx.....
If I had to keep just one of my watches, it would be my 5970 for sure! ...
I totally agree with you
The 5270 looks bland compared to the 5970, which just "jumps out" for me.
You will laugh, but it makes me think about the old Dato and the new Dato.
Old Dato and 5970 for me, all the way, while I am not at all inpsired by the new Dato and the 5270, aince the first pics I saw.... Best, Nicolas

And the more I see it the more...
I would rather have a 3970P with silver dial! ;-) Cheers,
PS. What the heck....Cheers,
3970P for me pure perfection and doesn't get any better. Love the classic size and look of this 20 year old wrist baby! Cheers, ...
Beautiful Ken............
But then again so are the photos of the 5970's :) That said, I would be very happy to be able to afford any of the three different models :(
3970 not keen on the new equivalent but I love the split...
...second chronograph model 5204 I think I would push for that model one day.
I still don't yet own a Patek, however one day...
This watch is a real beauty, I'm still young young enough to dream!
interesting.....
i thought this was an application piece? if so, how could the AD have so many unallocated 5270s?
Check out the world economy,
My local dealer has the models in the window that the experts here say you wouldn't usually see.
One Overlooked Point on the 5270
Sometimes it is a step forward AND a step back. With the 5270 Patek introduces its own manual wind chrono movement (the venerable 27-70 is from Breguet) with an instant jumping minute counter (with Lange has had for years in all the derivatives of the Dat...
