5107 (for me)

5119 with the seconds dial at 6 oclock is the one I prefer of the two on your post.

5119g., the 5120 just seems a bit to plain for me. Not sure why I usally enjoy the simpleness of time pieces. Just my 2 cents.

Hard to go wrong with either of these timeless classics, but I too prefer the 5119g with the seconds dial. I like to be able to set the time precisely and to see at a glance that the watch is running.

I do not care for either.
Of the two Id have to go with the 5119

If you really wanted one from that line Id do the 5296

I wont buy a Patek till I buy the 5960P

Please keep us posted, regardless of which you pick you cant go wrong with a Patek.

I agree.
Buying either is similar to me as buying Rolex Airking, its a nice watch, but I'd rather have a Rolex sports model.

Very interesting post! Possibly my two most favorite pp's! I am partial to the 5119g though. Let me know what you get and where you get it!

The 5119G gets my vote. It's a stunning watch.
