Patek Philippe

We have seen and discussed both watches before, but I had the pleasure to take more pictures and wanted to share them with you. I will start with the Ref. 5200 ... ... and next is the Ref. 5270. Lets start with a nice side view ... ... before we have a l...  

A questioning the 5200. You include the words "fitting wrist". And that is my big concern for the watch. It is a fantastic watch. It would figure very high, if not right at the top, of my wish list for this year IF it fitted. It requires a fairly big wris... 

is from Magnus, but on mine (17cm) it looked like this: Too big for my taste :-( Hope that helps! Oliver ...  

My wrist is small, and regardless how much I like this watch, it looks ridiculous on me. Shame.

Many thanks to you for sharing

that blue looked fabulous.....is it the same blue as the VC overseas chrono? anyways, not sure about the pregnant sub dial but can't complain about the colour.

that 5270 blue dial is really growing on me. Stunning.

You did it again with your great shots Oliver! I'm not a square watch guy so not inspired by the 5200 which, nevertheless, seems very nice. But what appeals to me a lot here is the 5270. I was wondering what I would think of the all blue arrangement, i.e.... 

Both look different all the time and I had not the chance to compare them side by side, so I have to guess as well :-) Sorry and thanks! Oliver

Beautiful Pictures. Incredible photography of one of my favorite watches 5270g blue. The 8 day may be large on me as well. Looking forward to trying it on

This is always the best do do and strongly recommended by me. I have experienced so many surprises - good & bad. Thanks! Oliver

Dials are class and versatility .. The blues are elegance personified. Thanks for the lovely photos, irresistible !

Those kind of replies make it even more fun to work on those kind of pictures. Thanks! Oliver

5270 looks incredible in any version to me… wow. Thanks for sharing!

are perfect. I prefer this watch, as it does not look as if too much is happening on the dial. The wristshot looked the best but looking at the other threads I was disappointed to see that you need a big wrist. (Not that I'm planning on getting one soon) ... 

Well, maybe someone has done it that way. Maybe it is just much easier/cheaper to produce "impressive" watches in bigger sizes. Maybe some are not able (not anymore) to produce smaller watches and especially not with complications inside. Maybe it´s just ... 

With lots of substance too. Extremely well crafted and finished movements, dials and case. Thank you Oliver for the post. Love your photos of both blue beauties. Your photos really bring out the best of Patek's fine workmanship. It's all these details tha... 

Robin I agree with you, but not only when it comes to PP :-) Cheers, Oliver

.....if i had a larger wrist, the 5200 would be a certainty for me.

But if I may be slightly controversial and say I think I prefer the 5100 to the 5200. I haven't had the privilege of trying the latter, so I will reserve judgement but that's my initial take. As for the 5270 blue face, if it didn't have the pregnant tach ... 

Dear friends, Patek's blue dial is mesmerizing. Now 5270 new blue dial is my grail so I could pair it with my 5960. Have a nice weekend. Warm regards, Bom ...
