Key Points from the Discussion

The green dial of the Patek Philippe Ref. 5711/1A-014 appears significantly darker and deeper in real life compared to its online representation, a crucial detail for potential buyers.
The diamond-set bezel version of the Nautilus, while visually stunning and remarkably shiny under light, raises practical concerns about daily wearability and discretion, particularly in urban environments like London.
The allure of the diamond bezel was unexpectedly strong, even for a collector not typically swayed by limited editions, emphasizing the watch's intrinsic beauty over its rarity.
The Patek Philippe Ref. 5711 with a white dial is identified as the original author's personal watch, based on the distinct time and date settings compared to the other display pieces.
The diamond bezel Nautilus is described as an intriguing piece that would certainly not go 'under the radar,' reinforcing its statement-making presence.

More like a dream than a goal...

Considering the limited numbers that will be manufactured and how many people are already after it!

Nice. If you forget the limited edition which dial color would you have. White, blue or green?

Already have the blue and white FRAMII but the green is really nice

I didn't expect it to be that alluring.. I am not enamoured or impressed by limited editions, just go for the beauty. If I could only have one of the three ..... it is a tough call between the white and the green
