Some input would be very appreciated

I am not new to watches but I am new to Patek, or perhaps, Patek is new to me. I have been studying the various models current and retired. I prefer arabic numerals when available and I prefer red gold in many cases. I am also attracted to the white gold with Patek. As most of the models I really prefer are in the 80-350K price range, I have set my sights lower for this first purchase. The officer style pieces get my attention but most are too small for current wearing IMO. The Calatrava's may be just a bit too classic for my taste - just not quite enough pizazz. Then again, when I see a great photo of almost any model it has pizazz!.

I have for today zeroed in on the 5124G. By the way I am a brown strap person as well.

I would be very grateful if some of you would be kind enough to comment on this piece, or even perhaps have a wrist shot. I would like to know just how the community views this piece. Any alternative models to suggest would as well be appreciated.

This is to be an occasional daily wear piece.

Thanks for your input and suggestions.
