    Did you pass out while wearing it or do you sleep with your watches on?!

    I think the 5970 was done in Yellow gold for only 1 year, then Platinum for 1 year. The Most produced were in White gold, and Rose from 2004 to 2008, then the Yellow gold came in,and discontinued in 2009 and that is when they went to Platinum. Both are really super. I lean toward the dial of the 5970.

    The little "engine" in the 5204 is one of the greatest ever. So I still lean toward the P5970....
