I own a 5227j since 2015. This watch never gets boring. Feels great on the wrist.

I thought i would love the caseback, yet i have opened it like 6 times since 2015 although i have worn the watch every day since i got it. So i guess its nothing thats really fun on a daily basis. Yet the dial and the feel of this watch are perfect and imo better then with any other patek but the nautilus. The dial has like 100 different colours and is always a great joy. Sometimes the dial even shines a bit, i have never seen the black dial though. Size, weight, dial and quality of case are too good to pass, so i would take the 5227g all day. Feel free to ask more questions if you need to. Cheers



Btw: do you see how even the signet reflects the light?

Looking to acquire one of the above pieces; like the unusual appearance of the 6006g; however, love the hinged case back of the 5227. I do own a 5107p, just FYI Suggestions from my esteemed colleagues here would be truly appreciated Thanks in advance Best... 

I would say the choice here is mainly between very classic and elegant (the 5227) vs. more original (but still classic and elegant enough, the 6006)...

The hinged caseback can be a nice addition, but the 6006 has in my opinion one of the most attractive Calatrava dials of the standard catalog. Up until 8 months ago I would have probably suggested you the 6006, but now it's in a sense been "surpassed" by ...

Hard to top the 5107P w either of your two prospects

For me the black dial 5227G would be a little too similar to the 5107P (black dial, white metal, similar movement and size). I also prefer the 5107P over the 5227G by a mile. This leaves the 6006G and while I like its 240 movement and small second I am no...
