I like it. They’ve even taken a decent picture for a change. Prefer the g though.

Looks nice. Prefer the G to be honest. Also think they would have been better off calling the 37mm version midsize instead of ladies as it will undoubtedly fit many mens wrist better than the 42mm.

I prefer the g, but to be honest this reference has never done much for me. For a travel watch, the 5164 seems to make more sense

I think the 5524R looks stunning. That said, it wears too big for me, and I still think I would prefer a pilot's watch in WG. Moreover, I would still rather wear a 5164 over it anyways.

Stunning, but I really like the one that Tyler and Rich have in the white gold better.

Not a fan of the pilots, but the R looks much more attractive IMO.

This looks better to me in RG. I also think it's a mistake to market this as a lady's watch.

That pic does look really good, I'd have this in RG and the 64 in SS.

Says the man, who with Sam, started off the whole RG and chocolate thing, that some of us fell for.

Looks cool, but those pushers on the left of the watch look a bit clunky. I guess I'm not used to seeing such big things sticking out of that side.
