Here are the physical comparisons. Can you still see that alleged “continent” sized difference? ��

You can see the slightly wider diameter of the case back in the watch on the left.

Like everything in Horology, you have to see them in the metal and try them on before you decide and commit. Just saying...

A front comparison. The most noticeable difference apart from the bigger case is the lustre of the white gold case compared to steel.

Front side, the new WG version looks better proportioned than the SS. The date window is better integrated with the markers.

What size do you think is better ? I am worried that the blue looks too flat in the wrist because of the bigger size.

Cheers

now available in Italy.
Here together with a wonderful 5711rose...

Can’t wait to see one in person. I’m extremely tempted but I won’t be in a position to buy until next year anyway.

The 324 SC movement in both the 40 mm and 42 mm is 27mm in diameter.

Vetracer · 1 November 2017, 06:32 PM

Yes that’s right and it’s the same movement in the highly-acclaimed and much sought after 5711. Why are we spouting facts?

watchucallit · 2 November 2017, 01:38 AM

I saw one (5168) today in London. If not for my 5164.. would have grabbed it

Was it readily available in the showcase Doc?

watchucallit · 2 November 2017, 02:39 AM

No but they brought up from their vault. they are a real AD. I am really thinking about it ... but if someone else wants it send me a PM and I will send contact information.

AJW232 · 2 November 2017, 03:39 AM

Which AD in London was it? Would be interested to take a look.

tng11 · 2 November 2017, 10:57 AM

So they're slowly trickling in and becoming available at ADs without being spoken for?

Those secondary market prices are dreaming IMO.
