Hi Roy, I'm not familiar with the 5335A but when I got advice from this group, the 5370B was definitely the way to go. I'm sure they'll tell you.
It does actually out perform even some modern timers. The only negative is that it's big and clunky. But *so* well designed. I just wish they made stuff like this nowadays.
