If I summarise your thought, you want a kind of PP 5522 Olympic Games flag 😉

due to some comments regarding the 5522 NY Edition

Maybe, we could start a poll for another color dial / countries: Europe: -Black dial Asia: -Red -Yellow Muslims: -Green as there are some country LE with 5130 models or maybe: Black for all other countries ? What do you think of this proposal and results,...

I'm in! [nt]

By: Bruno.M1 : July 13th, 2017-04:25

What about green for all other countries?

By: damianp : July 13th, 2017-04:39

It's already a a quite simple dial, if you make the dial black, it could be much too boring for a sporty watch. I'd be much more interested in a non-limited steel 5976 anyway.

It was just a proposal. I let the Moderator to take into account all your comments to create a poll ;-)) [nt]

Mine was also just meant as a proposal. Didn't want to critizise your choices ;-) [nt]

Good one. A kind of... but, Blue is already taken for USA. LOL [nt]

If PP can't respect the right colours, it's the beginning of the end LOL 😁

Great idea! Hmm, needs a rainbow dial for gay Atlantis

Penguin dial for Antarctica

I'm scared in advance by the possible results 😱

I am a bit lost here?

By: Patekphilippecollector : July 13th, 2017-05:40

Are we saying the 5522 has a blue dial because it's a launch for USA? Actually DXB was black on the 5130 and Mecca was green (not all the Middle East)....I think a coloured dial may fundamentally be in conflict in what is intended to be a knock off of a p...

There are "Pilots" from different countries ...LOL

By: patrickh : July 13th, 2017-05:55

5522 is not a real pilot watch, only the PP interpretation of. Maybe Zenith ;-)) My 2 cents, Patrickh

Rephrase...knock off of the Patek Pilot I.e 5524. Regards [nt]

By: Patekphilippecollector : July 13th, 2017-08:00

Thank you for this additive explaination ;-)) [nt]

By: patrickh : July 13th, 2017-08:07

Not sure how it’s a knock off, given that Zenith introduced the Type 20 Pilot 40mm at Baselworld 2013.

By: anonymous09 : July 13th, 2017-10:18

It's arguable that Patek took inspiration from Zenith and made a more refined version of the Type 20 GMT Pilot, along with adding the date. www.watchprosite.com

"Knockoff" - a copy or imitation. Ok so you don't think it looks like a 5524 so that's your opinion. Noted! [nt]

By: Patekphilippecollector : July 13th, 2017-10:47

Sorry, I wasn’t aware that Patek have exclusive rights to the colour blue – duly noted, Karl.

By: anonymous09 : July 13th, 2017-12:09

My opinion isn’t an opinion, it’s a statement of fact. Zenith introduced the Extra Special Type 20 Pilot version at Baselworld 2014, which brought with it a central seconds hand and an ETA 2892 movement. The bronze version in 2015 saw the movement revert ...

I vote...

For a matte moss green dial version.... or a matte deep beige nearly taupe dial version... both would be in spirit of the brown vintage leather jacket and khaki clad desert pilot... but ideally not too many versions please!
