Incoming!

After thinking a lot, I have decided to pull the trigger. PP 5205 will be on my wrist this week. Thank you all for the recommendations in other thread.

The gradient blue on that dial is one of the most beautiful thing.

Don’t change your mind because someone on an Internet forum recommended it!

Go with what you want!

The reason I was going for black was because I have VCO blue dial and thought that its nice to have something different. Personally, I liked blue dial in 5205.

Can't be that authority without a watch with blue enamel dial.
