New 5226g


Perfectly gorgeous IMHO





Quite a light show when the sun hit it!



Photos don't really do it justice. It needs to be handled and seen up close. It's all in the details and how it plays with light on the dial, case sides and bezel.

Love it and congrats. That dial is so simple but rich at the same time.

Beautiful watch. Are these on allocation?

Did you get a chance to look at, try on, the 5326?

Congratulations. The case sides and the construction of the lugs are truly spectacular.

Is that the second strap supplied with this reference please?

Didn’t you like it on the OEM nubuck calfskin?

Just out of interest just noticed amateurish typo on the PP site for this reference

Thanks to all.
The tan strap just isn't my style so I prefer the darker one.
Sorry no sign of the 5326g at my AD yet.

I was thinking of getting a deployant clasp for the 5226g like the one with the 5326g.

Two straps and clasps are a lot more convenient and I prefer deployants in general.

Anyone have a ball park figure on what a white gold deployant would cost before I call the AD and get a shock?
