Friends, as my 5130G and I are probably not becoming friends for life, I am seriously thinking about getting a 5110R (which I always wanted). And a 5196G (which I also always wanted). Keeping the 5130G and "see whether I might like her eventually" does no... 

as its a severe buyer's market right now.

I bought a 5110.....have had that for many years of pleasure now. Go with what you like on your wrist.....life is too short.... what you have on your wrist should be about giving you pleasure.

The 5110P killed the 5130G. Best, Nicolas

at the end of the day, if you don't draw any pleasure by wearing a watch it is better to let it go ! it not only helps you but also someone gets the watch that he/she was looking for !! thats IMHO. Best, mahesh.,

I kinda like smaller watches nowadays. I feel they are more comfortable to wear. Thanks for all your views. Best wishes. Geross.

what many of us have felt at one time or another. Maybe because we regretted a purchase or because we noticed that we were right not to get one, a few months later. I'm always very careful with advice about getting this or that reference as it is subjecti... 

I have talked myself into a 5130 (coming from the idea of buying 3919, then 5196, then 5035, then 5110, then 5130, quadrupling my budget). I cannot say that I love my 5130 or that it has become a part of me. I keep on looking back on 5196G and 5110R and t... 

I am famous for "not getting it right the first time", also when it comes to cars

...  

I had the 5130G sold it and bought it again a month later. I think knew it was the watch I wanted. My 5930 is in a different league but I. Oils be tempted by a 5130P

I think my "R" would be the 5110....the proportions are so much better. But how would it work? Sell the 5130 privately? I somehow feel that if I part-exchange the 5130G against a 5110R at a dealer (in Southern Germany there is one who has a R) I might get... 

But I must admit that I sometimes prefer an older model much more than I do a current collection model. SeaDweller and Submariner is for instance one example. The VC Les Historiques and the current CdV is another example. However, I definitely prefer 5130... 

And whilst maybe financially it wasn\'t 100% the right move it was 100% the right move for me and my heart and eyes. Always go with Gut feelings that way it will always be the right one for you. Good luck. M

You could tell time easily. So to down size to a 5110g is not what i would do. I accept my fate. Ill just buy a simple nautilus or aquanut in the near future. As i said in a previous post the 5130g is a good world time. Cheers friends. Geross. ...  

...that is not my primary reson for loving watches. Somehow the 5130 has the wrong proportions, too "modern". THe 5110 is delicate. PP style at its best. Also I know now what else is wrong. The desk rat that I am I spend most of the day in artificial ligh... 

Even though I really like the 5110 I strongly prefer the 5130 with its more contemporary size. I love the case design of the 5130 and ist great legibility. And, as always, I prefer watches with a little bit bigger size due to my body height and big wrist/...
