Dear Friends and Enthusiasts, another big day for Patek is here! It's my big pleasure to introduce to you Reference 5750P, the latest entry of Patek's 2021 Collection, coming from no less than the Advanced Research department! This stunning new release, a...
Or to put that in perspective, the person who bought the Tiffany 5711 at the recent Phillips auction could have purchased approximately 10 of these instead.
I wouldn't be surprised, however, if a new model containing the latest advances that characterize the 5750 will make it into the regular catalog one day, so more collectors might have access to it ;-) Enjoy.
The video is very well made to explain the technical aspects. On the aesthetics, I have some reservation but it is a great end of year release for sure
There is still a lot to digest and understand but I read the description below and it sounds like Patek have really been putting their minds to it. Im at work and I will have to revisit your post. This is what we want to see from the power house that is P...
And indeed, lots to digest also on the aesthetic level -- an original design which, as you say, at the same time is still remarkably *very* Patek! Cheers.
The unusual design is very much to my liking. I am puzzled that Patek announce a watch like this as an Advanced Research limited edition of 15 pieces. I would imagine there will be quite a few more than 15 seriously interested collectors willing to buy on...
However, I wouldn't be surprised if we will find this new movement in future offerings of Patek's regular catalog (production will always be very limited in numbers though, as is the case with all minute repeaters ;-) Cheers.
And yes, the orange strap with black stitches is a really attractive extra touch in my view as well --- but having confirmation from our resident "Strap Master" always feels good! ;-)) Enjoy.
Advanced Research - this is marketing bull....t There is basic research and applied research as the two accepted aspects in research. As if PP believes that their invention cannot speak for itself - what a pity, I would be ashamed to read that on my caseb...
After all the beauty of the minute repeater was that it was to sound sufficiently audibly to the wearer for it to be a discrete and personal experience ... I recall Thierry Stern said that once of the loudness of the chime when asked once before
My understanding is that while the MRs from the current catalog (e.g., the 5178) are no longer clearly audible at a 10-meter distance, quite remarkably the sound of this new 5750P fades away only at 60 meters. Obviously, one way to view it is that a bette...
I like the dial and rotor treatment. Very fitting for an advanced research piece. Also nice to be looking at a proper patek again. Thanks for the updates! - Kevin
I really enjoy the esthetics of this watch, especially the movement of the smaller wheel on the dial. I’d prefer a black strap on it though, but that’s easily fixed.
I like the part where he goes: my dad would not like the seconds indicator, but screw him im the boss now. Dad would have said don’t mess with the movement, so I said dad, why don’t you take another walk around the lake and try not to get lost. Ok, I para...
It’s interesting to look at, but Patek essentially camouflaged the hands, making it very difficult to tell the time (at least visually!). We all have our pet peeves about watch design, but to me the one deal-breaker is an obvious legibility problem. Same ...
However, I can understand legibility might be a concern or a priority for some, this is certainly a legitimate point....in which case, even a watch in the league of the 5750 might not be for you Thanks again for commenting.

20m for both the Chopard and AP yet with beautiful sound. The Patek does have a sapphire caseback, but at such a cost in wearability. Either of the others could be daily wearers.
Wonder if the 15 ppl that were allocated this watch knew they were buying this or was it communicated that they are eligible for purchase if they commit to spending around 590CHF for something not yet revealed. I guess those 15 buyers have no problem payi...
Not so sure about having 'advanced research' emblazoned on the caseback, though. Research is either theoretical or applied and, if applied, one would hope it's advanced. It doesn't need to be said in so many words and has a "superlative chronometer" whiff...
Grande & Petite Sonnerie, AP Supersonnerie, and then maybe a few Pataks. Lovely design and engineering but in the end, it is all about the quality of the sound, volume, melody, tonality, etc...👍
Once again, I think that Patek has been able to excel AND surprise us, which is always a great combo! Hopefully, this new MR concept will find its way into some references of the regular catalog in the future, so a few more deserving collectors will be ab...
Talking about PP advanced research and this watch. Good listen by watchfinder and Co channel The $650,000 Patek Philippe 5750 Is A Hyperwatch Game Changer | Watchfinder & Co
So my apologies. What a watch this is, I’m just trying to digest what it is and how it works. Great pictures and follow up, thank you for all the work you put into these reviews and announcements. Have a lovely weekend…Jim
