Patek's October 14 new Chronograph releases are live!

By: FabR : October 14th, 2021-07:00

Dear Friends, as we announced yesterday, here are for you three stunning new releases from Patek's 2021 Collection, which went live just moments ago! See: The 2021 Chrono lineup includes the new references: 5204R-011 in Rose gold, 5905/1A-001 in SS, and...

Indeed, and I'm pretty sure we are not done with these exciting new updates to Patek's offering...both within the Calatrava line and across the whole catalog! ;-) Glad you are reading -- and contributing to -- this forum! Cheers.

Patek's October 14 new Chronograph releases are live!

Many thanks for the post

Thanks for commenting -- definitely a pretty big and welcome surprise in this new SS iteration! ;-) Cheers.

Thank you for a great post.

Thanks for your comment Miles :-) Probably even more than other models, I'm sure that the new 5905 and 5930 need to be seen in the metal in order to be fully appreciated...and I'm also looking forward to it! ;-) Cheers my friend.

Yes probably.

Thanks for the lightning quick update FabR!

My pleasure, a real beauty at the top of Patek's catalog! Enjoy.

Lovely! I’ve placed my order with the AD, thanks for sharing 🙏

Thank you Westrop -- and sincere best of luck with your allocation! :-)

I love the green for 5930….we now have blue, red and green….P probably means a discontinuation next

I'm assuming this new iteration (green, which is the color of the year, plus Platinum) will be more successful than the earlier G version...but I'll be interested to see the market's reaction for it, it's indeed never been a big favorite so far! ;-)

The G already wears strangely due to it’s hight / dial ratio…in P will be a beast..look forward to seeing it

Hopefully it won’t be too long before deliveries begin!😉Cheers.

5930P

It certainly sounds like a "wilder" idea for Patek's marketing than it would for other brands, but not necessarily a bad one in my view....and I'll save your prediction since I don't knw the answer yet! ;-))

Buy a lotto ticket

OK then I might suggest it to Patek, at least for part of the marketing…don’t underestimate yourself (nor them! ;-))

🙂

👍😊

;-)

Unloved now means a fortune 20 years from now : )

I'm pretty confident it will be received with more enthusiasm than the G version, but I'm curious to see to which extent, since it's not necessarily given for granted...for sure, I am putting it in the *very* good-looking category! ;-) Cheers.

I think it's a nice (if trendy) color...

Presentation and technical details of the new 5930P:

A pity they chose green. Too much green, for me. It is too trendy for a piece which aspires to be a classic. Especially in platinum!

Thanks for commenting Nico, hopefully the choice of green will make this model more trendy (in the sense of attractive) given the lower degree of success of the G iteration..will be interesting to see!😉

Yes, but they could have chosen a grey or a black color, rather than a trendy color. In black or grey I would have probably be in...

GREEN MEANS GO

+1 it looks nice, but I was thinking the same thing. Not sure it will stand the test of time aesthetically

We'll see in a few years.

Bravo!!

I will not get it. If I had the choice, I would go for the G. Its blue dial is way more my taste.

Not my favorite color combo either

How I understand your love for the 5110!

Thanks for sharing this Fab …

Thanks a lot Captain, definitely the color of the year!😉🥂

Orders placed 😬

Sincere good luck Captain, if I remember correctly you’ve already been very successful with Patek recently! Looking forward to your wristshots!😉🥂

Hi Fab …

We do, very much so!😉👍🥂

Impressive

Thanks Jurry🙏😉

A few more official (and pretty gorgeous!) 5204 pictures, many of which I'm sure are/will also be available on Patek's site:

A few more 5930P pictures:

And finally for now, a few more 5905 pics. These also feature some pretty amazing "Lifestyle" pics that I want to include (will do the same for the 5930 and 5204 when I receive them):

5905 is nice, but...

Thanks for commenting Blau, another chrono reference that indeed took a while to gain popularity and now lots of people love!👍

Thank you for uploading a lot of photos that I can't see on the official website.

Thank-you for looking, Shun -- some strong similarities indeed, though also some differences as I was mentioning below between the two bracelets (both very nice in my view, in fact I always kept the 5167 as a /1A):

Does The Bracelet Clasp...

Yes, I don't think I have other pictures of the 5905 clasp, but it's mentioned as "fold-over" so I assume it closes similarly to the 5167:

Thx, though needs pics please

The 5905 is quite nice and for an reasonable price. Well done!

Thanks Reuven, in full agreement -- a corollary to the SS choice was indeed a significant decrease in MSRP ($87,530 for the P version, $70,380 for the R, and $59,140 for the /1A ;-) Cheers.

Thank you for compiling all this for us, Fab.

My pleasure Aymen (I must love Patek and WPS *a lot* to wake up at 2.30am this morning, given that at 9.30am I even have to start teaching! ;-))) It was definitely worth it today, as you said these new releases are quite exciting!

I did notice the early timing of your posts! Your passion and dedication are without question!

Thanks, it's definitely similar though with some differences -- see for instance my 5167 clasp vs. the new 5905:

Thanks for pointing this out. I see now what you’re saying.

👍🥂Cheers.

I see spring bars, so I'm sure the bracelet will be removable in the usual way

Good catch. Thank you for pointing that out, Blau.

5930 p love it

Thanks for commenting Sir, hope it will be yours if you decide to go for it!👍

The 5204 is a grail watch, but Out of reach for me. The 5905 is very nice, too.

really like he 5905 in SS

SS was a very welcome surprise for this reference, hopefully it will be available soon (I also haven’t tried on any of these models yet)👍

The new references will hit ADs by the end of October already.

👍👍thanks Volker. PS: and just recently a 5177G-028 hit one of my ADs, courtesy of Patek…it IS gorgeous…looking forward to picking it up over Christmas and share some pics with the forum!😉🥂

Indeed, looks like the 5905 is already a big favorite👍Cheers.

My Main contact at my AD is currently on vacation. Worst possible timing 😄

Ouch! WhatsApp? Email? Carrier pigeon??😂😉

The official MSRPs for the three new chronos:

What a disappointment.

I'm pretty confident it will be received with more enthusiasm than the G version, but I'm curious to see to which extent, since it's not necessarily given for granted...for sure, I am putting it in the very good-looking category! ;-) Cheers.
