Yes, the J is a classic. The Munich is very nice too (the one between the green P and the R above).
Watch Shopping Yesterday...
...In San Francisco. We hit Patek and Lange, but the Rolex reservation was wonky so we will go back soon. A couple of observations. Our 'Ambassador' at Patek was Jay. Very nice guy who knows his stuff and loves watches. He was wearing a vintage mono-push ...
I'm not totally convinced. I tried on the two-tone (which I normally like)...
...but would have preferred the gold in yellow...
I love the 5270 in most versions, but for some reason the J doesn't sing to me in the wrist
Although I do believe that the 5270 in yellow gold is something special
I tried the 5270p with a green dial in Vegas.
I was blown away. It is simply incredible. Next to my 5712. ...
I just don't know if the novelty would wear off...
...whereas I see the J with light dial as a classic...
I agree, J has all the elements to be a classic
Although my pick would probably be the new grey one, despite the tachometer scale around the dial ...
Being a bit picky...
I would have loved a narrow lume line on the hands, similar to the 5905, but for some reason Patek decided to go no-lume on the 5270s...
The dial is already quite busy.
They might have tried this option and decided it was a little too much... Just my guess.
I have not seen this reference live.
But I imagine I would really love this dial color.
Do you know what?
I have discovered that I normally prefer the versions without the tachometer scale, so the green would be my favorite of those three
The green has to be seen in real life to get the full impression:
it's incredibly eye-catching. Best, Emmanuel

Jump on the Caltrain and head south for about 45 minutes. Kerns jewelers has both Rolex and Patek
