bought these two ! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ


Definitely 3700 because if it was the 3800, it will be sitting there for a long long time at the price quoted ๐Ÿคฃ

The nickname for 3970 is mini โ€œhamburgerโ€ ๐Ÿ” for the specific reason you mentioned on thickness.  It is a wonderful piece.

Glad you had a great visit and thanks for sharing๐Ÿ‘

But, I had the opportunity to try these on at WOS in Las Vegas at the Wynn. The 3800 is just perfect. Wow. I love the patina on the dial and the fact that thereโ€™s no seconds hand. It also feels bigger than the 37.5mm. Asking 170k. I always admired the 397...  

It has a soul.

It looks great but it is 3700 not 3800

Yes thank you. Correction. It is 3700.

The members of this blog know more than the salesperson (and clearly me as well).

I tried a 5970 and 5270 before.

I think I prefer those.

5270p salmon is out of this world.

 
 By: gary_g : April 21st, 2024-05:47
But I agree. 5970g is just so perfect.

Agreed.

No seconds hand getโ€™s the watch lighter too.
