Your AD did well capturing the dial. I couldn't when picking mine up.

I picked this and a 5711/1R in quick succession - from different ADs.

I'm a bit torn because I can only afford to keep one of them.

Thought the size and cleaner dial might be better. Traded a 5167R for the 5164R and have regretted it.
