once you see 5970 in metal, one can completely understand why it is considered one of 'THE' best PPs.

voluptuous case and the lugs slopes nicely enabling the timepiece to fit on most wrists...

pretty much a perfect timepiece !

Myrte + 5970R is in deed a great combo too ;-)









Best,

Gorgeous.

The problem is that most ‘mere mortals’ like myself will never get to see a 5270 ‘in the metal’, as you say. So thanks for sharing these wonderful photos
