5959 no doubt
May 14, 2009,05:47 AM
Hi,
I would pick a 5959 every day because it's a real in-house PP chronograph calibre, a much more refined ultre thin calibre!
It is a technical masterpiece of extreme beauty to my eyes!
Of course I understand it's a small watch by today's standards, even a very small watch (but perfect size for me).
This is just too desirable:
This one lacks the column wheel covers, it's a prototype!
The 5004 is a superb watch too, but the more complicated is not necessarily the better (for me)!
Cheers
Dje

Thank you for your nice pictures and opinion. I borrow this photo from a friend. I like 5959 with white dial; However, I like 5004P with white dial too. It is a hard choice....
I should have added....

Hi, Let's be snobbish for once! The 5004 is a rare bird, but it's pretty common when compared to the 5959! Cheers Dje

I will choose the 5004P everytime, I love the complexity of that timepiece! Thanks

Both these watches have a very retro, futuristic but refined steampunk feel to them. The 5959 is better if you are a neat dresser, suit and tie fellow. You can wear the 5004 completely disheveled and hung over.. I've done it, it works
good idea
