Unbiased 5296
As a background, I LOVE the 240 movement. I think it's just the coolest caliber in the market today. However think the 6000 is a poorly designed watch. It just looks to me that they took the 5000 and said "this is too small, how do we make it bigger" and crammed a date pointer on it. It looks unbalanced and, to me, ugly, kinda the unwanted child of a Aquanaut(dial design) and a 5000(movement and related off-center seconds)

Calitrava 5296 or Calitrava 6000
Both in white gold. let me know your preferences! katinka
It's calatrava not cal-i-trava!
Calatrava is the name of a famous spanish architect: Santiago Calatrava(check the net). The design stems from the above watch from the 30's - I believe a Ref. 2096. So the 5296 is a real classic design in a new case. As the original was steel, I preferred...
6000G-010
Ok.. I get the 5296 is a nice watch, but check out the new dial of the 6000G.. I had a choice between the 2 and the 240 and the new dial sealed the deal for me....
