I simply love it! There was the salmon dialled, Breguet numerals one for a London jeweller that is a delight too... I can’t recall the reference [nt]

5196 R or J?

 
 By: glimmer : October 10th, 2018-20:34
Greetings to all, I’m currently deciding on which version to get for the 5196...I’m stuck between R and J. I like the whiter dial on the J but prefer the rose gold case. I will be wearing the watch as an office or smart casual watch. Any thoughts from 519... 

I don't think "J" can be beat...

...for a dress watch.

It all depends

on your skin colour! If you are tanned or have a darker tone, I would go for the rose as it would match well. Yellow was a more vintage look but to be honest, white is my favourite on this model!

+1 [nt]

I agree with Sham, for us Asians or malay to be exact the rose gold fits.

My opinion. I think it's best to try all options then decide what's best. In your eyes. Cheers 🍻 Geross.

Thanks for the reply,

and I appreciate your thoughts.

I would go for R in a heartbeat!

But it's a very personal decision, you should try them on and decide afterwards.

I’d go for the R but... I love the P!

A pretty convincing argument

Can’t go wrong with any iteration...

Comes down to what you would feel most at ease with and how it fits your watch collection and lifestyle needs. They are both stunning! Sorry no help...
