Salmon 5320

First time seeing the new salmon dial 5320. Have to say it completely changes the watch look and feel with the update. Color is a bit deeper than I thought, but works well. It is one of my favor release this year (have to say I do like salmon dials)

Let’s hope supply is a bit better this year!

The 5320 looks so much better than the previous version.
Have yet to see the Salmon 5172G. At this stage I like the previous blue version more

The 5320G Salmon looks very nice indeed. I was suprised how "smaller" it looked on my wrist, considering it is 40mm.

With the 5172G Salmon, they share the same "pinker" colour compared to the "honey" colour of previous 5450 and 5270P.

The case they have in commun is one of my favorite in the collections.

Hope you'll get it :)

It does seemed smaller than I could remember from the cream color version. Not bad but doesn’t felt like it is a 40mm watch, not in a bad way.

The 5172 is also very nice too but the patek r perpetual just a bit more special for me. Well, the wait starts, will be happy to receive either one ;)

The royal oak lurking in the background in the first photo is also sublime. More photos!

Thanks for sharing OP, have you got a chance to compare 5172 salmon dial vs blue dial?

Even if it remains a subjective topic, its size looks perfect on your wrist. I love Chronos but QP are definitely something very appealing to a watch lover :)

I don't know what you're looking for precisely but the Salmon (a little pink/rose) looks more "traditional". I'm sure the brown strap takes its part in that impression. The numerals, which are white luminova filled, on the contrary to the 5270P Salmon's (full metallic), bring a strong contrast hence focus on them.

The blue dial is quite grainy while the Salmon's sandblasted (smoother surface). It is more casual and I love its overall look. I need some time to "feel" the Salmon version and think about a different strap (grey? Black?). However, as of today, I personally prefer the blue one.

Not directly but I had tried in the blue version a few times. To me is a complete different watch. A lot more causal and I like it too if it is not for the 5524g I got. The blue dial is quite similar

I think depends on the collection. The salmon is more retro classic while the blue dial has a different elegant casual vibe
