Seriouslly considering a 3970RG or a 5050YG.....your thoughts please :-)
I think either watch will be a super fit to my tiny wrist and both have similar appeal to me. Which piece do you think I should go for? They both are very beautiful and hence the dilema. Also, if you compare a 5970G (which I already own) to a 5050J, which you rather have and why? I know this sounds like a question that I should already know the answer, but I'm truly in a dilema :-) Lovesss*CL

If you already own a magnificent 5970...
... why would you choose a 3970 over a 5050? Wouldn't you want something completely different? That's a dilemna I'd like to have.
since you already have 5970G
...5050 would seem like a natural choice to me. However, if I did not have 5970, I would pick 3970 over 5050 any day though ;-)
My thoughts!
CL, If i was in your posistion, I would have the 5050 ahead of the 3970 since you already have the 5970. However this is my head talking! ;) I think you are smart enough and experienced enough as a serious user not to be blinded by the "hype" of the 3970....
5970/5050/3970
Hi CL, I think your in an enviable position of even considering the purchase of these two fine watches (3970/5050). My opinion will appear bias (as I own a 5970), but I will try to give you an objective opinion nonetheless. 3970 vs. 5050: I Like both watc...
3970R is unchallenged here.
3970R would be my first choice among the 3 through it aesthetical stand point as I was lucky enough to purchase one years ago before the hype. I sold my 5050J off to get other watches and recently got a 5970WG. I would rank 3970R before 5970 or 5050 any d...
Gorgeous couple Zane
VERY nice. Add a YG 5050 or 5015 and that will make an incredible trio! Edwin btw, that brown(?) strap on the 5970 looks gorgeous!
No Matter What You Can't Go Wrong
Hi Cl: I own and wear all 3 models (and also have a small wrist). Comparing the 3970 and 5970 is like comparing "apples and oranges". Even in the same color they are markedly different watches, both aesthetically and size wise. The 3970 for me wears "much...
Many Thanks David for your advise :-)
May I ask which metal is your 5050? And of the 3 watches, which get the most wrist times? Also, what's your wrist size? Cheers...CL
3970 & 5050
Since you already have a 5970G which has the same DNA as the 3970 except with some modifications on the dial and the case, the 5050 will bring out a different watch - it's not a perpetual calendar with chronograph like the 5970 and 3970. The 5050 is purel...
