Ok her goes- obviously not haven seen the pieces IRL my comments are subject to change. Also my taste is vintage not new

1. The standout is 5320 . Not sure if this a brand new movement or the auto 324 SQ( reworked 240 with large rotor?). Big size may be a negative. Love the case and the dial looks amazing - cream dial. Ode to 1526 and 3448
2. The 5131 and 5170 are not new just new metals- with a plat bracelet (5131p) -not sure if this will be winner for everyone - adds $$$ to the price . And 5960 is a new dial - not new model
3.I am not in the market for modern pieces esp the very high end stuff but the 5372 is not to my taste. I f I was going for split second piece I would definitely go for the 5370P
4. What is going on with the 5650Gtravel time ?? seriously it looks like the dial has ben eaten away by a virus to show the underlying mechanism-
It appears that every brand is now bringing out odes to vintage - the master is Omega - how many re -editions can that release - or more realistically how many re- editions can collectors buy ?
Rolex has totally lost the plot but I must admire them for putting a moon phase in their new cellini line.
I am happy to continue to collect vintage and there is very little in the modern range to tempt me

Thanks for the great report
