both are atractive

and If I could I would keep both of them , but If I had to choose I would go with 1951.In this case  (a square watch), its  thinness is in my oppinion an asset ! as well as the simplicity of a dial. looks more noble. Not to take away from the compilations of 1952 but  in my oppinion  watch loving is not always only about how many features it has.  What is important as well is overall feel to the watch ,  as to the strap,  you change it anyway every six month and luxury straps are not hard to find.  good luck decicing.

once again congrats on good taste.

for those who like cacao ;-)) Both are nice. Maybe 1952 for men and 1951 for women a perfect duo. Thanks for this side-by-side presentation. Cheers, Patrickh

Great comparison Bill!

I love the case design of the Toledos and in PG, they are just warm and awesome to me. They wear a little big for my small wrist but I can appreciate the feeling of them on my wrist. Both are beautifully crafted - case, dial. Between the two, purely on lo...
