I don't get the world timers..... and I do not care what material its from. Then add a useless chrono to it, brilliant! So, 5905P hands down.

Sadly, it seems as though no one really likes the 5930G.

Secondary market values seem to match this sentiment.

I would only buy the 5930G at a substantial discount. Otherwise, hard pass.

Love the textured inner dial of the 5930. But that’s the only redeeming feature of an otherwise very busy dial for my taste. I’d definitely go with the 5905.

I went 5905

5905 is BIG tho
I've always admired from afar but never tried one on. The size is a concern. Good residuals it seems!?;

5930 is very clever, but I think ultimately its like a 28mm dial or there about. I tried it on the other day and was impressed by the complication. Loosing about £15,000- £20,000 walking out the door is off-putting

When you´re used to 40mm watches it´s huge.
