The only way to know is to try them on!

Hi,

On my wrist 5135 looks too large to be worn, at least in my opinion. I've seen here pics of 5135 strapped on wrists that I would define as not large enough for this watch. But it is a personal matter.

5070 looks large but I could wear it! In fact I'd love to wear it! It is not excessive.

5970 is smaller than 5070 and doesn't look large IMO (on my medium size wrist). It is a perfect size for me.

Regarding looks, the 5070R is perhaps the most appealing (to me) recent PP. I prefer the 5970 case but the cleaner 5070 dial wins the match over 5970.

5070 is pure and really beautiful! The 5070P is very beautiful too.

Regarding 5070G to be honest I don't remember ever seeing it, or perhaps a few years back at Basel in a window! That doesn't count for making an opinion.

Cheers

Dje

I have a large wrist...and almost always have to get extra-long straps. Where did you get your gray strap?

Hi, In fact I find it very appealing. The only negative aspect of this watch is that it is one of the largest PPs! Definitely too large for me. Cheers Dje

what about 5070?

Hello Dje, I would like to get your opinion since you mention 5135 is abit big among the PPs. Do you think 5070 and 5970 are also too big as a Patek? I find that most of the comments about the 5135 is regarding its huge size but the same person (not you) ...

Hold it right there! :))

Before I mention anything....................5040 is an impeccable watch. It is one of my favorites. I do accept the fact that it is small. But I think that smallness causes major appeal, forget today's standards. You are thinking that way because of your...

agree with you...
