5140p for me. Masculine sporty and incredible thinness all in one. Plus, platinum, and the blue colors will allow you to wear it with pretty much anything...

FeelingTheBlues · 1 October 2013, 09:36 AM

I personally prefer the 3940 style to the 5140 so this one is off my list. Besides, I tried the 5159J myself and loved it, it has a great presence on the wrist and looks incredible.

Bulliondesk · 1 October 2013, 10:03 AM

In my opinion 5140. The blue sings to me.

Stuxnet · 1 October 2013, 10:06 AM

5140.

kuota_kalibur · 1 October 2013, 02:54 PM

5140p first then 5159.

jon_jon · 2 October 2013, 01:21 AM

I like the slimness of the 5140 and the blue dial of the P version really stands out. The proportion and the thickness of the 5159 seemed a bit off to me, but it is still a nice watch. The retrograde date feature is a special feature of the 5159.

SearChart · 2 October 2013, 01:30 AM

5159J or R for me.

Presa canary · 2 October 2013, 02:13 AM

5140. I don't love date indicator on the 5159

nick c · 2 October 2013, 03:18 AM

5140

There is a 5140G on "the list" right now for an exceptionally low price, but I love the platinum version not the WG. If it were the platinum version at a near 40% off, I'd buy it...

Thank you Q!

BTW, your take on this timepiece is spot-on. All the niggles that people complain about e.g., too cluttered, too shiny, too blue, yada, yada disappear the second you put this watch on your wist.

Then it's just... AHHHH!!!!

It is interesting to me, and I'm guessing it is the color combos, but the WG version does look crowded to me compared to the Pt version (though not badly...).

TimeOnHand · 2 October 2013, 12:46 PM

5140P for me....

conkers · 2 October 2013, 01:01 PM

5140P beautiful, just wish it was bigger.

PatekCollector · 2 October 2013, 03:47 PM

Hmmmmm. Very tough choice!!!. A little bit for stunning 5140P over the awesome 5159

hjs1924 · 3 October 2013, 10:21 AM

I appreciate everyone responses. Trying to decide sometimes is a lonely job. The 5140P catches my eye and sticks. The dial has a lot going on and somehow remains pure. IT is next on my list! Thanks.

I agree prefer the layout on the 3940 just wish it was bigger.

tavv160 · 8 October 2013, 06:24 AM

5140 for me. The blue is beautiful!

paverman · 8 October 2013, 11:30 AM

A vote for the 5159 here. I've always liked that reference, but wish it'd be a little larger.

HauteHorlogerie · 25 October 2013, 07:43 AM

5140p. Incoming thread soon????

mps354 · 25 October 2013, 08:54 AM

5140p for me, but both are amazing

Demonoid · 25 October 2013, 09:02 AM

5159

blcblc · 25 October 2013, 11:57 PM

i choose 5140p

Demonoid · 31 October 2013, 10:02 AM

The 5140 it's too small at 37mm!? And too much going on the dial for its size?

mdtddd2007 · 31 October 2013, 01:24 PM

5159g

Puffy · 31 October 2013, 08:11 PM

Seems like the 5159 isn't very popular.
