Catalogue Essay
Launched in 2011, it was the brand’s very first perpetual calendar chronograph featuring a fully in-house movement. There are three recognized series of the 5270, each with distinct characteristics:

First Series: Produced from 2011 to 2013, this series features blackened white gold hands and indexes, offering the highest legibility among all three series. The dial includes railway minute divisions combined with Arabic five-minute divisions. (The present example.)

Second Series: In production from 2013 to 2015, this series features classic white hands and numerals, along with the addition of a tachymeter scale that follows the contour of the subsidiary seconds counter.

Third Series: The white numerals and hands remain unchanged from the second series, but the tachymeter scale now stops at the intersection with the running seconds subsidiary dials.

The present example, the Patek Philippe ref. 5270G-001 from circa 2012, belongs to the highly desirable first series. Offered in excellent overall condition, this fresh-to-market example comes complete with its full set of accessories, including an additional solid numbered caseback and setting pin.
