The blue dials are nice. I would recommend the 5327G or the 5140P blue dial (at a higher price of course).

5327G! If it had the platinum version that would be my favourite as I love Breguet numbers.

The 5140P isn’t at PP webpage anymore?

I like the 5140 more than the 5327. Prefer the stick markers since the dial looks a little cleaner.

+1 - or you go 3940 which many prefer over the 5140...

5140 for me. Both are great but the 5327 is a bit overrated imo.

Another vote for the 5140. I have the G version which has been discontinued. I like the opaline Dial with the sticker marker more than the breguet numeral on the blue dial.

I think the P gray dial was the last one off the line. Quietly discontinued all the others. Curious to see what the 240Q will be cased in this year.

Is it totally impossible to get a brand new 3940p from an AD nowadays?
Or still feasible with a 4-5 year lead time?
