The 5170P is sublime!
Mar 26, 2017,16:06 PM
I just got home from Basel after a day trip that started at 3.25am from London Canary Wharf and got home at 11.15pm!! The photos Imran has taken are exceedingly good especially of the 5170P but one really has to see this watch because the dial will change colour depending on the light it catches. For me personally, it is one of the best new releases together with probably the 5078G which unfortunately I could not try on as the only one available was on permanent display on the window. And the pricing of the 5170P is somewhat reasonable compared to the 5170R taking into account the platinum content, diamond markers, stunning blue dial and tachymeter scale.

First I just need to load the photos. This year there were some watches which did not create any emotions to any direction but at the same time watches creating some very strong emotions. Plus some real winners. Best, Kari
