For me the most aesthetically and technically exciting are the 5249R automaton, the blue and red lacquered dials 5270P and the new 5204G (love the blue/red).

The ultra thin Nautilus with iconic 240 movement and no date or second hand is quite interesting, but this is a “limited” (?) edition of 5,000 pieces….. yes, 5,000! Was hoping for a steel version…. Oh well. Need to see these Nautili in the metal and on my

Unmistakable Trend

6105G – fascinating technical concept, disappointed it's styled as an AP sports watch 5322G – nice (but everything is blue and green dials now) 5840P – very nice if you appreciate Cubitus (I do, didn't at first) 5249R – beautiful…at a very high price 7047

Well spotted!

The new split seconds perpetual calendar 5204G is to die for! Amazing! On the other hand, the new Cubitus perpetual calendar looks like a radiator I remember from my grandfather’s apartment.

Thank you so much for your detailed thoughts

and owner’s feedback on these watches. You obviously know them much better than I do and, as the 5204 fits your wrist perfectly, I guess there’s indeed no reason to prefer the 5270. All I can say is that during this try on experience, the 5204 didn’t feel

5204 for me

I traded in my 5270G-001 to raise funds for my first 5204(R-011) and have never looked back. The 5204 fits me so well I have added another to my collection (5204G-001) and they are both in my daily rotation. No issues with fit on my wrist at all. 40mm cas

Yes. It is stunning, and it wears fine on the wrist too...

but the 5270 wears much better for me as well. The 5004 is even thicker but you don't hear much complain about it. Combining multiple complications is also a complication itself 😊 Here is the 5204P-011 I have tried. I was worried about the upside-down moo

5204P black dial must look stunning in real life,

but the case thickness doesn’t fit my wrist. 5270 wears much better for me. And you have two wonderful examples. I liked 5270J quite a bit but I also like the variants without tachymeter scale. And I wonder if I don’t prefer the two complications separate

Another great post with beautiful images. 5204 is of no interest to me at all, although I certainly appreciate the complication.

Although I much prefer 5970 in any metal to 5270, I like the 5270 a lot, particularly the dial layout, with only one function at each of the registers at 3 and 9. I also appreciate that the movement is fully in house. In the unlikely event that I were to

I am a big fan of...

both 5270 and 5204. I have the white and salmon 5270. The green is very attractive too. But 5204 is on a different level, although the G is a bit dull. My favourite is the platinum black dial. Btw, that 5270J looks awesome on your wrist.

I wanted to say 5204…

But now that I have your feedback on the watch my reservations for it have picked up. Personally I wouldn’t bother with these two references. I’ll get a 5970 as it is still attainable. A 5004 reference is way less attainable now. Best Gatsby
