Patek Philippe

Finally saw this beauty in metal at my AD. The Salmon dial is non-metallic, and like lacquer in texture. Despite being made of platinum, it doesn’t feel much heavier than the G. Though there is no Arabia numerals in lower half of dial, the overall balance...

Certainly it is a hypothetical question and different persons (with his or her own existing collection) will have different view. In my case, I already have 5270G and 5131R, and find both pieces attractive. But certainly cannot get both. Best, Henry

my answer ! Unfortunately I cannot give you an “unbiased” response. :-(

The enamel dial is simply a jewel which you would like to see it on wrist every day. Anyway, it is just a hypothetical question, as I haven't got any offer for either one.....

5131 GTG soon so that you can examine the 5131P ?

yummy ! Glad that you will bring it home soon ! Eagerly awaiting your upcoming write-up !

Though I know your opinion may be biased, which one would you choose between this salmon 5270P and the 5131/1P? Initially I am not that attracted by the cool colour enamel of 5131/1P, but my taste seems to be changing now. Thanks. Henry

thank me because I was poisoning you ! LOL !

Beautiful PP imo . Thanks for the pics

But my AD is indeed very helpful and have allocated me several lovely references.

I haven’t seen this in metal yet so I haven’t decided on the 5270P yet. Does anyone know how this salmon dial compares to the 5450P salmon dial? Thanks!! Keith

But the lack of numerals is very annoying honestly. For me it ruins what could have been a superb watch

However, due to the lowered sub-dials in the CH29 movement, it simply doesn't have enough space for numerals (even partial numerals) in the lower half.
