5070 vs 5170

[jag32]

In the market for a chronograph and as much as I enjoy ALS, I’ve decided to stay with Patek only. This brings me naturally to the 5170 which is absolutely gorgeous. Given I have a 5130R in Rose Gold, I would likely obtain the white gold or yellow gold. I also love the black dial look which is exquisite and a bit more modern and youthful in appearance. In researching the 5170 I discovered the 5070, it’s predecessor and also lovely in appearance. What is attractinnkento the 5070 is the larger 42mm case as opposed to the 5170’s 39mm case. The primary reason I bought the 5130 as opposed to the newer 5230 is specifically because of the larger case and I’d likely do the same, choosing the older 5070 over a new 5170. What are everyone’s thoughts on the 5070 vs the 5170? I know there are several 5170 owners on here but does anyone own or owned a 5070 and can share their experience? Wrist pics of the 5070’s large 42mm case would also be appreciated! I think a 42mm 5070 with a black dial would be a real avant garde interpretation of an otherwise classic Patek chronograph.
