It's 75 and sunny in LA, so a nice day for a stroll. I snapped a bunch of photos of the 5270 along the way. None are great, but I thought I'd share just for fun..

Very nice Stephen

brandrea · 14 February 2016, 07:57 AM

Fantastic , love that blue dial. Beauty piece

ap1 · 14 February 2016, 08:03 AM

Couldn't tire of viewing that piece.

jc-watch · 14 February 2016, 08:13 AM

Wonderful! What is so cool is the wide variation in the dial based on the different lighting.

Great post!

RussW · 14 February 2016, 10:10 AM

Super photos, I love the blue dial. And I think the 5270 has such a great case design. I wish the 5170 had a similar case.

subtona · 14 February 2016, 10:14 AM

Just beautiful!!!!

jon_jon · 14 February 2016, 10:54 AM

Nice weather for a walk with your new watch. Hope you had a nice stroll!

AK797 · 14 February 2016, 11:08 AM

What a masterpiece!

Stephen, just curious how do you view the Platona now you have that beauty?

I'm still working that out! They are so different, yet both offer so much. I'm grateful to own both, and if forced to choose, I really don't know what I'd do just yet. What I would say is I'm happy I bought the Platona first.

A truly great pairing. How thick is it? Any chance of a side by side with the Daytona?

I've read the 5270 is 12.4mm thick vs. the Daytona, which I've read is 12.2mm --- in any event, they are very close. As for the 5270, it works really well with most of my shirt cuffs. It can slide completely underneath, or I can "adjust" the cuff to allow some or all of it to be visible.

I will get you a side by side and some profile pictures later today or tomorrow.

Curious what is your wrist size?

Here you go, Neil. These are not the best photos - the best I could do tonight. I will try to get better ones in natural daylight this weekend.

conkers · 14 February 2016, 11:44 AM

Lovely shots. The other people in the park must have thought you were some kind of weirfo taking all those shots! ��

Hamish · 14 February 2016, 01:27 PM

Great shots.....thanks for sharing

GarageBMW · 14 February 2016, 01:50 PM

Great shot, enjoy, here it is -15 fahrenheit...amazing how the blue dial changes with the light.

mps354 · 14 February 2016, 02:30 PM

It's zero degrees around NYC, but that watch would still look beautiful

sirish19 · 14 February 2016, 11:10 PM

Great pics of a fantastic watch. Love the blue.

Hairdude1 · 16 February 2016, 01:39 PM

Awesome Pics!

lapince · 16 February 2016, 09:07 PM

She's a beauty, how right you were to get the blue dial version, it's by far the most beautiful one available, I usually am not the kind of guy interested by those kind of watches, too dressy for me, but I could really make an exception for the blue dial 5270, much nicer IMO than the 5970P, also very cool but for me not as nice...

Passionata · 16 February 2016, 10:08 PM

great pics as Arnaud said the blue dial is the coolest!

hrm · 17 February 2016, 06:36 AM

The watch looks amazing.

Passionata · 18 February 2016, 06:09 PM

Nice pair ,really love the Daytona but that PCC is👍🏻
