Oh hell, I have to comment on this one a little as I think a point of digibloke's original post weren't clarified totally. The clasp for a leather strap Dress or P4 is the exact same size as the one used on the leather strapped P2 or P3, only the magnet holder "door" is different. It will hold the larger magnet "door" for the earlier large magnets(NOT the "P" magnet of the P1) or can be fitted with the narrower "door" designed for the smaller Dress/P4/Ladies size magnets.
Cool thing - you don't need a Pulsar band! Any leather strap with the right lug width that ends 15mm wide(at clasp) can have it's clasp taken off(most use a springbar) and replaced with the Pulsar one. You never throw the clasp away, just the band. The Pulsar leather bands came in black, brown, grey, tan....possibly more. I think of the leather bands with the magnet holder clasp a real "sleeper" item for collectors(unless you just plain hate leather) - long after your capped bands have become pieces of unrepairable junk, you can be happily swapping bands and exchanging the clasps. The stainless clasps are slightly rare, the gold-filled are quite rare.
Bruce -A gold Dress with a brown band sounds gorgeous.
I personally prefer the small magnets, even for setting a P2 or P3....seem to be less likely to turn on the time(or date) whilst setting.
My votes on the model lines:
Men's Dress is not part of P4 family - different diameter, differences in circuitry.
Sport is not part of P4 family - different thickness, display, function and setting procedure.
One very important model was forgotten in the discussion - the Pulse. They bear slight resemblence to a Sport module in the construction technique used, but are of a totally different diameter and thickness, function(obviously) and setting procedure. Chronologically, the Sport came
after the Pulse, so I suppose the Pulse would be the real contender for P5 status and the Sport would be P6?
