5131J-001 vs 5131J-014
Hi, have been digging around old forum posts and tried to find more information on differences between 5131J -001 and -014.
I understand the cities changed in 3 places around the dial but if anyone care to share what other differences are I would be keen to learn more.
In the brilliant post by Oliver last month there is a mention of changes in execution but not entirely sure what these are:
Here is my 5131J-014 wishing you all a Happy New 2015!

Except the cities
colors of your enamel are deeper First enamel 5131 like mine are more "pastel" ...
Indeed!
Thanks for this observation and posting your beautiful pictures. Very interesting. Seems they decided to change tone of colors, perhaps switch in enamel color brand? Perhaps different artist at work as well?
In addition to my post ...
you already mentioned, I would say the execution of the enamel is different. Never had the chance to compare them site by site, with patience and a good loupe. It is not up to me to judge them, because I can´t proof it. Still I have my favorite version .....
artist

Without further information ...
I guess we are talking about a different artist or even artists. Yes, I was referring to a favorite between these two you asked about. Cheers, Oliver
hmmm...
Intriguing… one with the "original" enamel execution and the later with the updated timezones (and likely shorter production run). absolutely impossible for me to guess, but suppose I have to think you prefer the 001?
Oh please Oliver
tell us which one is your favorite and why I am sure you won't disappoint any
My vote ...
gets the ...-001 in J and G, but quite a few pieces have been below my (very high) expectations after carefully looking in detail. Would like to see all version at the same time for comparison and for a "final judgement" about pros and cons. Even when I c...
Oliver, would you please give me the link of the thread
explain it the difference between the 2 version of the 5131 Many thanks
