5127G vs 5296G...Difference?
Hi all, Can someone please enlighten me on the difference between the 5127G and the 5296G? I notice there is 1 mm difference in case size (37 vs 38) but other than that, the movement is the same, the dial is the same, even the price is the same. Is there any difference other than 1 mm?Thanks
