i would not be sure if the 5227P is coming

1) My feeling is that the 5227 does not sell as good as Patek thought it would sell (just my perception, i dont have any informations - yet they changed the 5227G very quickly what should be unusual) so its not likely to make an even more expensive option as with the 5196P in a different market situation back then.

2) PP generally tries to sell more complicated pieces, so most of the new models are more expensive than a possible 5227P. In the last years, PP only offered a few new simple pieces. This could mean they are not making a 5227P.

3) PP tries to create more casual-style watches that are less formal. Thats the way they are going (see: Pilots watch, new SS calatrava). Is it likely that they create a less formal calatrava in P when the less expensive J and G and R Versions are very formal? I think not because it would not fit into the current collection of the 5227!

Question: what's the probability of an upcoming 5227P ?

A quick question for all the Patek collectors: How likely is it, that we'll see a 5227P in the Future? Is there any hint on when it would be released, If there will be one?

5196P might with new movement have a better chance than an 5227 update to P...of course speculation it is ! Best, Mahesh.,

I still believe that a new Calatrava line will be revealed next year, I was hoping it will happen this fall, as when PP revealed the new 24 line last year. I cannot imaging PP without a Calatrava line, and a more modern line is due, especially in terms of...
