I still prefer the P and G versions but can see the appeal of this classic. I think only a 5016 would pull away wrist time

The P might be the greatest ever...but still a beauty

I had a J. It really was a great watch but I found I never wore it. As a dress watch it was kind of bulky and I prefer a brace,etc watch to one on a strap. Also the sub dials are not that easy to read. In my mind the perfect watch it something like the 5712. But like all of these things it’s totally in the eye of the beholder.
