Patek 5740g vs AP RD#2

Someone said Patek 5740g is evolutionary, but AP RD#2 is revolutionary.

Which one would you choose?

This is a good poll. I opted for the 5740 as the size is perfect for me. The RD2 is beautiful and slim, but at 41mm, it's too large for my girly wrist.

Even though I respect the accomplishments of the RD2 it doesn’t please my eye aesthetically like the 5740

I actually find the standard RO pc to be much more pleasing to the eye.

5740G. But if I had a chose between AP QP Ceramic Openworked and 5740. AP without a doubt.

I prefer the older model AP RO PC. That was perfection, I had one and miss it. The 5740 is phenomenal on the wrist. Amazing presence and legible. That being said the older AP RO PC is real value in this nutty market.
