Here's my answer. I would do something else.

I would trade a 5070 for a 5711a steel (blue dial) + 5170P (chrono) + 3940P.

You then get a nautilus, a chronograph awesome dress watch, and you get one of the finest perpetual calendars in existence. All in platinum/steel. Heck you could throw in an 5167 aquanaut in there for poolside debauchery.

All great value retainers.
