And just love how the hue of the dial changes from grey to almost white depending on the lighting.
Also I fail to grasp why this seems to be the least favourite version of the 5270 (if preowned prices are anything to go by): I could understand why some prefer the 5270G-018 (3rd gen) but if a tachymeter is a must then the 5970 looks better imho, and the 2nd gen 5270G-013 with the chin doesn't appeal to me at all. Of course this is all very much down to personal taste.
Cheers,
Pieter
