IWC Portoghese Chronograph Automatic/D.S.R. NEW

Does The Caseback Design,
:):)make any difference to your comfort?I originally thought the wave pattern on my Seamaster's case backswould rub my arm raw considering I wear the watches while wetA LOT. I couldn't have been more wrong, the wave pattern actually seems to keep an air space between the back and your skin so it ends up being extremely comfortable to me.I now find the FLAT case back of my other very well known manufacturer to be the offender, sometimes rubbing to an uncomfortable state while wet for long periods of time...what's your experiences with case backs patterns, and sapphire? do you even notice ?thanks,diver88:):)

5164 and 5712 owners please give your thoughts
Okay, so I have another incoming in a different section. It's gonna be gooooood. But that won't be in mid December. In the mean time as I look to replacing my 5711 I'm considering a 5164 or a 5712. Those who know my previous dilemma about the 5712 may know what's coming in December hehe. But this choice is very hard indeed. Don't go telling me to keep the 5711 cause it's already gone after 3 weeks and no love (I would rather where my RO anniversary in I'm going for the clean blue dial, blue the RO's blue datewheel gets me)Anywho, any owners of either chime in. Thanks! I'm no where near making up my mind. For me, I love the 5712's asymmetry and the moon disc is sweet. But the 5164 has a more practical movement and I actually like the deployant and rubber strap on the 5164...at first I didn't but it's comfy. Anywho enough now your thoughts!!!

Looking for a Second Patek.....
Hello All, I am now in the market for a 2nd Patek. My purchase of a 5035 left me with a good chunk of money left over..... so I have decided to buy a 2nd Patek with these funds! You see - unlike some people who think the 5035 is a lesser watch than the 5146 - I actually choose the 5035 for the following reasons:- 1) the size is perfect - 37mm 2) the 24 hour dial 3) the history of the 5035 being the first Annual Calendar 4) the investment potential of the 5035 Vs the 5146 5) the fact it is no longer in production. At the end of the day the big choice was either the 5035, 3940 or the 5140. As they were all similar in size the fact the 5035 was 37mm had no bearing on the decision. I now am considering a 5107, 5127, 5196, 5119, 5296.

Everyday or on occasion?
Curious if you wear your Panerai everyday or just for dress? I ask because I was asked that question while at a AD. I indicated everyday ..... Daily driver for me not just for dress up. What about you guys? I assume the watch is durable enough?Thanks
