Patek Philippe

Not much discussion here since it was released. Thanks! Images from Patek's website. ...  

If that kind of money d be around i think i d take the 5531 rather.

but I think the 5531R is a lot more money. I too would take the 5531R over almost any watch of any brand!

I could not quite understand what you meant.

I am shocked. I know the 5531R is about £420k to £425k in the UK. Will speak to my AD tomorrow to find out the price of the 'other watch'. If they are priced in the same bracket, that would be ludicrous. A 5950 or 5959 (I know, I know they have been disco... 

The 5372P costs about 10% lower than the 5531R so you are right in that it is in a similar price bracket which explains why the 5372P is unlikely to be a big seller.

Not sure about other countries though. I'm also (badly) looking forward to some nice wristshots from the lucky owners!

I hope to see some wristshots soon here as well 😊

at 38.5mm was so right that I thought it would attract many purists to it. But the dial of the 5370P despite its 41mm diameter is arguably more attractive. I know a few purists who are eagerly awaiting for launch of the the 5370R!!

5372's dial disappointed me at the beginning, but would love to see it in person, I'm sure it's "not that bad" 😉

a dial that is 'not that bad' would not suffice. It has to be pretty incredible at the very least!

we all have great tastes my friend!

I suspect. The super high end market is not as robust as it was in the early 2000's.

I currently have to live vicariously through watch forums.

Perfect size, subdials arranges in a very appealing and symmetric manner, amazing complications in a wonderful case.... But personally financial reasons aside, it would not be my first pick in that stratosphere. Perhaps it is the cutouts on the dial that ... 

........when you see 5207s hammer at usd500k inc commission it does make you wonder about the state of the market for modern super Complication Pateks.

...

But this kind of watch I would personally not wear on a regular basis.... if I had to pick one for daily use you are correct!

To me, a PC doesn't make any sense if you don't wear it for long periods, so that you can enjoy the complication.

And he size and understated dial options make this an ideal daily candidate. Still not my top pick in this price range however.... even for a daily office watch...

for me I would have to go with any one of the below, in no particular order or preference - 3670A - 5950A - 5004A - 5951P black dial.....

Hahaha.... anything less would be tough I suppose...

I am sure it feels great on the wrist as size is perfect....

It is beautiful. Complications are amazing. But... no love at first sight...

I like the "more real look" of your pictures. Definitely I'm sure that it's a piece that gains a lot in person. And also curious about the size, which looks perfect on paper.

I love the work on the case with the two tone polishing But again, no love at first sight. Which is a shame on such a complicated piece ! But Which is good as I had no budget I had a real emotion when I first tried a 5078p... and this is why I pulled the ... 

Btw, the 5078 is a work of art, "simplicity" at it's best!

For me I wear a lot of very large watches so it really limits my appetite for most Pateks. The 5207 size is far preferable to me than the 5372 but I appreciate the size of the latter is far more classic Patek. Great to see the wrist shots. I have never ha... 

Last year I was in the market for a Patek rattrapante, budget was not a consideration as I was celebrating a special occasion. Firstly, I agonised over the 5204P, before I concluded that it lacked something and that I was mesmerised by it for the wrong re...
