5170p Appreciation thread

Just received my 5170p, looks absolutely stunning. Unfortunately when I was putting the straps in, I scratched the inside of the lug. It hurts the soul. Regardless, here are some photos of the watch

Congrats. That’s a small scratch. I’m sure it’s still in tip top shape especially vs Pam66’s watch

This watch is the best. Treat yourself to a stroll outside when it’s sunny, when Dial hits berserk mode it is at its best

I want Stephens grey strap next for mine

Great watch, congrats! Now that you’ve already scratched the lugs, try out some beige and grey straps on it, really makes the blue pop

in analogy to an old well-used saying about a certain latin american county, let me say "the 5170P is the watch of the future and it always will be":::)))
