Awesome post Andre ... I didn't know you had 4,5 and 6 digit references of both.

Tough choice really, but I’ve owned all three and my vote goes to the 6 digit references but just my a smidge over the 5’s. I always found the 5 digits so comfortable but there’s just something more solid feeling about the 6’s.

Amazing collection you have

Awesome pics! I’m a GMT guy. GMT wins across the board. Stay well up there.

Thanks for the post, OP! Improving over time, yet keeping true to the DNA of the original.

Ceramic bezels and improved bracelets have changed the game. More durable and attractive (IMO). Durability surely being key in a ‘tool watch’.

All beautiful watches, but I've got to say that the Pepsi's are my picks for each row.

I don't think that the bezel is larger on the 6, i think just the insert, by a margin, while the knurled edge is a tad shorter than it is on its predecessors.

Tough choice. If really 2 should remain, I would pic the 5513 and 16710.

agree! I wish Rolex would head back in that direction. You can see the switch from tool to jewelry.
