We have a winner!
After months of searching and trying on anything and everything when it comes to ACs and PCs the battle was between these two..
 the 5205 is great and art deco'ish but i've never been too keen on the bezel and the concave case   the winner, the 5146G creme dial, a more classic Patek and at 39mm it is made for my wrist. brown or black strap, it is a killer dress watch, whereas the 5205 is more smart casual  love them or loathe them, the 3, 6 and 9 work very well on the creme dial, and the chapter ring is the dog's bollocks to look at             on order, now just a question of when the email appears in my inbox from DavidSW...

Nice work - and welcome to the 5146G club. It embodies all that is great about Patek.

Beautiful, beautiful watches. Not sure if 39mm is perfect for your wrist - it is obviously harder to get a proper perspective via a small number of pictures but I think the 5146G looks a bit overwhelmed.
