Fancy watch but

If that kind of money d be around i think i d take the 5531 rather.
I may be wrong here

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

I could not quite understand what you meant.
Really??!!

I am shocked. I know the 5531R is about Β£420k to Β£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...
So sorry for the delayed reply

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.
The case size

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!!
Very few

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

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 ...
I know we donβt discuss prices but.......

........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.
True
By: keks : May 22nd, 2018-01:56
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!
I do agree on that watches are to be worn...
By: keks : May 22nd, 2018-09:26
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...
Thank you JC/!

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.
The size IS perfect.

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 ...
Lots of great comments here.

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...
The 5372P is one of my favourite modern grand complications!

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...
