Incoming!
My AD about a month and a half ago called to tell me my 5212 strap (blue calf from the 5172g) was in and was excited for only a second until I realized the watch hadn’t arrived yet, until today! All I got to say is I love the cream dial and the handwritten style text is legible and crisp.

The dial shifts from that cream to an off white silver in different lighting and looks great. For anyone who gets a 5212, for sure order a blue oem factory calf strap or put this watch on any type of blue strap as i wore the brown calf for only a few seconds and did not like it.

Wow looks beautiful, wear it in good health

I also ordered the same strap for my 5905P as well :)

How does the strap feels?

Yes, the same lug width for straps but the 5172g case size overall is larger by 1mm at 41mm

No, the 5212 is 20mm and the 5524 is 21mm, and the difference is bigger than you might think.
