Thanks. I tell everyone who asks that I think the 5146 is an undervalued and underappreciated watch. It has multiple complications (power and moon phase) in addition to the annual calendar, a thin profile, and is under 40mm!
The 5146p, I think, is even better. The platinum case weight is lovely, and the little diamond in the case is a fun flourish. Moreover, because the P has stick indices, it has a vertically symmetrical dial, which I find more pleasing aesthetically than the other versions with the Arabic numerals. I've also heard there is a (comparatively) much smaller population of 5145p watches compared to the G and R. It's just a nice, wearable special piece in my humble opinion.
