Good suggestion that 5711 would be the perfect piece for a
showdown with 15202 green ! Which 5711 is most worthy for this fun competition given that the RO green is "limited" ?
Patek worldtime for me
The WT function and enamel dial are second to none. Absolute grail piece. So that, or a green watch...... yeah
Definitely Cloisonné dials
Would definitely pick the Patek Cloisonné dials over an AP RO any day…👍. Remember every dial is unique on the Patek versus AP with standard green, blue, salmon, purple, etc colors.
Good point !
Each 5131 dial is different because each is hand-made and as such is piece unique !
Definitely the Patek
The enamel dial kills any ordinary dial, even a fume dial on a hyped watch Despite the beauty of the enamel dial, it doesn't come across to me a "look-at-me" watch, unlike the AP So it may seem strange, but I think the Patek is much more under the radar t...
Thanks John for your comments !
To me both the RO green dial and vibrancy of the 5131 enamel dial are eye-catching. Difference is that less people will know what watch the 5131 is and its significance.
To have either of these two is a blessing!
My vote is for appreciation and enjoyment of all watches. A case can be made for either piece, but If I had to choose one it would be… Just a sec, doorbell, be right back.
Both are great, and yes the RO is amazing, but...
I dont really think it is fair on the RO to be compared with any 5131 or any PP with enamel! 😆
I'll second that. It's a very convoluted juxtaposition.
But if pressed, it'd be 5131 by a mile. Never understood why would AP forgo its signature waffle dial on PT version. What a lost opportunity to make this release truly special...
Interesting comment by you Ivan5 relating to the
waffle/tapestry pattern. It would have been better to have a green tapestry pattern.
