Any 5172Gs out there?

Have not seen many incomings on this one. Looks sharp in photos with the lume glowing.

its the same movement as the 5170s which has been in regular production for a decade.

Probably just a matter of PP not prioritizing production of this ref for now.

Well if thats the case , they have built up a waiting list

I find more people loving the strap than the actual watch, but it is kinda cool

I am sure PP knew exactly in which week, for how long and how many watches will be made. This isnt a business when u wake up and pop into the office and wonder what you feel like making that day!!! If you consider the speed to market of most the baselworld releases this year there is obviously something delaying the process. I doubt they only start manufacture after baselworld but started long before hand and built up.inventory levels.
