I'd go for PP 5980/1A with blue dial.

thurgood · 11 November 2013, 01:31 PM

same here, i would go for 5980 1A as well. in fact i have similar dilemma with 5712r and 5980 1A.. since the 5980 1A is being discontinued, its totally worth getting.

5980 blue dial gets my vote

I love the RO perpetual and can't get past the odd placement of the chrono pushers on the 5980.

RO perpetual gets my vote.

PP 5980/1A with blue dial!

h999r · 12 November 2013, 05:36 AM

I'll be the odd man out here.
The RO Skeleton Perp has long been a favorite of mine (non skeleton as well, but I'd take either).

Colin W · 12 November 2013, 09:10 AM

exiger77 · 12 November 2013, 10:04 PM

FeelingTheBlues · 12 November 2013, 10:19 PM

Nobody does skeleton dials like RM. Failing that I would go for the AP.
