First, I like to say I am not responding to the thread fast enough because I am on a business trip with back to back meeting, afterall, I have a company to run before I have the resource for watch collecting hobby.
My native language is not English, so if I made a mistake on my post or someone misread into the context of my post, I appolagize for that. What I meant by "Keep in mind the buyer who is after this kind of grand complication are the ones that are a little older and would prefer something more classic and can last for year or even generations" was "We, me, you, anyone who is thinking or already own the 5016P or other grand complicateion piece" are the buyer. And I think getting a such highly complicated watch and waited for years for it is something that we should value and if situation allow, I woudl pass it along to my next generation. Besides, that statement was mainly regarding the "Red Hands" which is the main reason I didn't consider the 5951P. I dont think I should say because I am an older guy, I cannot stand the Red hands on 5951P.
My English may not be as good as many of others here, but I think some members might have read into the wrong context.
I was asked once by PinkPanther "are you a dealer?" or something like that, I just ignored the pm. I have lot of company emails need to reply and don't think this kind of silly email is neccessary to respond. Am I not polite because I didn't respone to some stanger who accused me as dealer when I tried to sell 1 watch on CM? And is PinkPanther and NoMilkToday polite by saying what they said?
My original post was hoping to have current 5959, 5074 owner or members who have extensive knowledge of these watches to share their thought among these refs, pros and cons, not trying to create any problems
I am very surprised to see the thread truning out this way
I valued most members' opionion and thank you for your time
I think mod should just lock this thread since it is getting no where, it becomes a thread of "if I am buying for myself or not". I felt sorry for these members. If they have no contribution to this thread or knowledge of these refs, why do they need to respond and attack someone who is just looking for information?
I don't have the chance to visit Geneva Boutique, otherwise I would be able to put all these refs on my wrist, feel how they shine on me and talk to the sales there for all the indepth detail of these refs
Thank you again for whoever have contributed their time for this thread
