Last week, I went to Milan and Geneva (where the auction was held) in search of RO5402. I brought my 16202 with me to compare it to the real thing.
The original Jumbo and the latest 16202 Extra-Thin look almost identical, but I found that the 5402, with its flat case back, is actually thinner. This photo was taken at a store in Milan. I came across a specimen in excellent condition right from the sta...
The dna runs strong.
In the comparison photo it’s nice to see how faithful the jumbo has remained to its original incarnation.
Thank you for sharing your journey, dear anaroku!
I’m sorry that you didn’t find the right 5402, but I admire your dedication to finding the right own and I’m sure a fine example will turn up someday. Meanwhile, you have a wonderful 16202 to enjoy! Best, Emmanuel
