Official figure for Pagoda 5500 made in 1997 to mark the inauguration of new manufacturing centre was 2000 (1100 in J, 500 in R, 250 in G and 150 in P). I think 1000 pieces is a huge number for a limited steel production. I can't recall Patek producing such a high number of limited edition steel watches prior to 6007A. Official figure for 5565A made to commemorate the reopening of Geneva Salon was 300. Even with 1000 pieces there will be a lot of disappointed enthusiasts who won't be able to get an allocation.
