nothing but time
350
Sounds right to me..
The diamond has been set between the lugs on new PT case models for several years now (the 5004p for example does not have it, the 5960p does). The dial color is correct (it's not glossy on this model) and the moonphase is indeed a very dark blue. Congrats on your new watch! Surely one of the last to be delivered if it's not a resale. One quirk about your PT model vs previous R, G, and J models that you may not know is that the chrono pushers sit up higher (protrude out from the case further) than on the other metals. I've seen 3 PT 5970's and for some reason (perhaps case diameter or pressing) the pushers protrude noticeably further than those cased in the other metals. It's subtle, but a consistent difference.

5970P received today looks ususual?
Hello Forum, Today I received my 5970P from my AD. I have noticed a few things about the watch that appear to be different from other 5970's I have seen only in photos. First of all it has 1 diamond on the case between the lugs at 6 o'clock. Secondly, the...

My Rg and Plat pushers are exactly the same size....Must be an optical conclusion :)
That is a great shot of the plat and Wg side by side.....Makes me realize that the 5970p is one hell of a good looking bit of kit.... M.
production schedule
is it true that the 5970p will be discontinued? An AD told me there are no more to be had and production has ceased....
Your watch is as Patek Philippe intended it to be.....Enjoy this masterpiece......
Interesting about the pushers I will compare mine with my Rg later..... M.
Don't worry and enjoy it! It's a fantastic watch.
And please share pics ASAP! Cheers Dje
A related question about my 5970J
It seems that the chrono buttons on my 5970J are somewhat different in that the polished surface seems to occupy a bigger portion relative to the bushed portion (looking at the buttons at some angles, sometimes it seems to me that the polished portion on ...
congrats Simon!
the older 3940P also lacks the diamond!! enjoy your new acquisition! Mech.
