Patek Philippe - Maybe its not so popular. I maybe wrong other purists can pitch in.

Maybe its not so popular. I maybe wrong other purists can pitch in.

I believe its 39mm in diameter , to me its kinda

large for a calatrava. 38 37mm pasable to me.

The 5296r is an auto 38mm 5196r manual wind 37mm. Might be biased but this i believe are calatravas that are just right in size. My opinion. If its bigger than 40 mm its got to have complication , dont want a wall clock on my wrist.

Best

Geross.

Patek Calatrava 5227G-010 any owner ?

By: christianch : December 21st, 2015-16:41

Dear Purists I am looking for some live photos/owners of the 5227G-010. I couldn't find many online beside some basel quick blurry photos (or with too much light). It looks very similar (in terms of dial colour) of my lange 1815 but I still loved the piec...

You have two wonderful Calatravas here Geross. I thought I wouldn't go for 3-hands only Patek anymore but would have preferred going for a more complicated one in the future. However, since I tried the 5227R and handled the 5110 (which have the 5127's cas...

Thanks for enlightening me Mark.

5127 so I am thinking to add a 5227

Your most welcome. My apologies the model you were inquiring has not come out the market.

Anyway my opinion i share with you in those pictures. Enjoy your 5127 and share your picture when you get the 5227. Cheers Geross.

It will arrive soon

Because of the 175th Anniversary pieces, the London event and new pieces presented this year, Patek manufacture can't deliver all novetlies at the same time, hence the 5524G and 5227G which are expected to arrive beginning 2016. That's why we don't see mu...

thanks for the review.. the one I reserved is here so will need

to go and check it the 5227R or the white dial G didn't capture me but perhaps the black dial will !!

Who knows,

...it is a laquered dial so it is going to look fabulous. We'd love to hear from your try when you can! Cheers, Mark

I think I prefer the pink gold version Christian

But that\'s because I like the cream lacquered dial paired with rose gold Have not seen this white gold black dial yet. I think your Lange 1815 anniversary is quite similar generally and between the 2 I will prefer the Lange to be honest Cheers Robin

thank you Robin ..I deferred the decision to the new year and I agree

By: christianch : December 27th, 2015-05:58

that the lange is amazing too! but I have to admit that the long waiting lists @ patek do work in putting a lot of pressure when a piece you eyed months ago arrives and if you don't get it quick someone else is ready to snatch it On a more serious note I ...
