Tried on these bad boys today
Even though I like big watches, I actually preferred the smallest one here. (The 5170p)

Which one do you guys prefer?

If you have the means you can’t go wrong with the 5170P or 5270P. Just gorgeous!

5170 just fits better on your wrist. 5270 is a beauty but unfortunately a bit big.

I will take a contrarian view and vote 5905R. Modern looking piece and the only AC (actually ACC) that I have been warming up to. Size is an issue though.

Another vote for the 5170p Such a nice watch.

Can't get over the fact that the centre pinion goes straight through the chrono subdial. (i forgot the ref #)

5270p is a collection-ended IMO. Only watch to ever make me consider liquidating my collection.

What is your goal? Collect-ability or desire?

The grass is greener on the other side... That's why I'm picking the 5270p here... God what a gorgeous watch. But the 5170p is staying with me forever if that means anything...... Sucks to be you op picking between such great watches.

5905R best looking of those three. Just my opinion. Most bang for the buck too.
