Can always count on purists
for opinions and friendly advice
I knew I'd get slapped with the first impression/initial feeling thing... I must say that feeling only crept up on me after leaving the shop, which is also why I might peg it on my subconscious (financial) self preservation instincts
Hmm must go back and try it on again and see if I can suppress those instincts next time...
Thanks for your input

5960P feel
I have been considering a 5960P with blue dial for a while - I simply love the color combinations of the dial and sub-dials with the metal and the blue strap... To me it's the nicest 5960 so far (new R with all black dial is also a killer ). Having said t...
I am not an an owner, just a tester.
I tried this watch so many times that I quite know it well. The proportions are, IMO, better than a Datograph ( and don't get me wrong, I love, absolutely love the Dato, well, the first one ). Now, it depends on your wrist. Mine is 17 cm big, which is a k...
its a beautiful watch, the feel on my wrist is magic. hopefully I will receive mine end .
of this month when I pick it up from a good friend. I chose the grey color as for me its more pleasing to my eye. Im an old fart. Got my first reading glasses last week, life changig experience hahahah
i hope i can help...
... having worn as a daily beater for a while the 5960R than took the platinum. There is no debate that the gold is lighter, therefore more comfortable. But keep in mind that the design of the case and the lungs is so good that this watch is very comforta...
it is heavy
I tried it couple times and for me its in fact a bit heavy considering its size, I own an RG ROO and the 5960p feels pretty much the same weight imo.

Proportions of the 5960 on the wrist are
nearly perfect. However, if you already own a Dato, you will be unhappy with the stiff pusher feel of the 5960.
5960 pusher
Agree it feels a bit hard for some reason. Mine is a Dato perpetual and I almost get the feeling that the "normal" Datograph has an even smoother pusher feel than my Dato perp, is that a known fact?
It's fine
It does ride high and the platinum version is heavy, but I love the watch. To me comfort is not an issue wit the 5960. It's fine. Full disclosure, however, I don't use it as an everyday watch. MST
no problems with comfort
... for me the 5960P wears very comfortable. But I am used to heavy watches and like the haptics of heaviness. And I wear all my watches relatively tight so they can´t move to glide down the wrist or tip around. Compared to other heavy watches (like GO Se...
Love It
I love this original version of the 5960P. It's really my favorite. I don't wear the watch tight and still don't find the weight a problem.
Ended up with this one...
Before I say anything else, I saw a watch that I've never laid eyes on before (at least not live)... And then I fell inn love. Forget the 5960P, forget the ALS Datograph, etc etc... I saw a FPJ Octa Calendrier and it aroused a feeling in me that I didn't ...
