If they release a 5204 with 5370/5270 style pushers (i.e. not the piston pushers), I will be all over it!

Patek PCC Feast!!
By: Conkers : August 19th, 2016-23:50
I had a few incomings recently and thought I would share for your viewing pleasure. I owned a 5970P previously and sold it in a moment of madness, but was pleased to be able to get hold of another! The 5270 vs 5970 debate will rage on for years - for me b...
excellent Roger !

an unbelievable set of grande complications But you miss some more simple chronograph's Throw in some 5070 / 5170 .. and we can have a similar discussion as the 5970 / 5270 ps, I have absolutely no idea how it must feel when the fedex truck arrives and de...
What a stress! It's a tough life!

Lucky you to be able to choose between these 2 icons. As for me I vote for the 5970 but I admit that there is a fierce debate and I'll be glad to see the feedback of our friends here... Mark will surely bring an interesting light on this discussion... BTW...
Thank you everyone!

I was in a fortunate position to be able to pounce very quickly for the 5270G/R and 5271P when Brexit hit and GBP fell by 15%. The 5970P of course was a different story as it was a used piece, but it just happened to fall into my lap at the same time. Bru...
of course I remember your 5070P
By: Bruno.M1 : August 20th, 2016-00:38
never understood why you sold it but I've sold watches too in the past .. that I now regret selling Maybe you want to give it another try ? Or try with a 5070G which is much easier to find and is a wonderfull one too. If your mind changed over the years i...
Food for thought........

.......for sure Bruno, but in the meantime I will enjoy my current pieces!
What a collection!
By: dr.kol : August 20th, 2016-00:22
I agree with Bruno. Just add a simple c chronograph or two or three... What about 5070P added with either the future 5170P or the same with split second complication 5370P. Your collection is quite something and with simple chronographs it would be out fr...
Thank you Kari.

I played in Patek's factory

on Wednesday with 5204P & 5370P. The latter is, in my opinion, superior. The ration between the case and thickness is perfect, the case design is really something and the enamel dial is out from this world... Best, Kari
Sadly......

.......I have only seen the 5370 double sealed thus far, but it does indeed merit further scrutiny.
Thanks Gordon!

Let's catch up soon?
Amazing

.......Coz much appreciated
That's an exceptional move Conkers

I am a big fan of PCC from Patek Philippe, especially for what they've been bringing since the 1518 in 1941 and what they represent in watchmaking history. I must say as Mike mentioned that I'm very closely looking to one and was very near from making my ...
Thank you everybody!
By: Conkers : August 20th, 2016-19:51
Yes until yesterday 3 of them were sealed, but it is heartbreaking to have these just sat in a safe! Mark - good luck with your ongoing search. I really don't think you can go wrong with any 5270 or 5970 (other than the 2nd series 5270 which are awful IMH...
Thank you Roger
By: Mark in Paris : August 21st, 2016-04:32
I think you're right mentionning they all bring something new and different. That's why it is so long to choose! And that we should have one of each Cheers, Mark
Absolutely Mark, but......

.......mustn't take this thinking too far or we start to dream of 2499 and 1518 and then things get rapidly out of hand!
