Folks, I admit that I am blown away by the display. I do not need the Mac Pro, completely not interested and not for me. Display is amazing and this is the thing that I would want to get. There are 2 things that are just not going to work for me:
1. 32 inch is too big, I need 27 inch
2. Price is absolutely out of my range, totally (I am not debating if it is worth it - if I had the money, I would get it)
 
Is there anything that you think is as stunning around 27 inch and not as expensive? I hate Eizo style because of plastic and think bazels. Maybe you have seen something else that is great for Photo editing. Something that is really top notch, but not 6-7K USD:-)

Alex,
I use a Dell P2715Q. I'm not sure if it fits your definition of 'top notch, but it is 4K, 27 inch, and has an IPS panel which is important for photo editing. It was reasonably priced. You sound serious, so you probably will get a calibration device too. If you calibrate your monitor, you can be confident that the colours and contrasts you're choosing for your photographs will be seen the same way by others with calibrated monitors.
 
I have a link to a review site that has lots of information about monitors.

Second the motion, Dell does make some fine units and the P715Z is a good one

Alex, take a look at BenQ displays. They have a line specific for photographers and they are very good ... and affordable!
