Definitely the white Gordon !
Since Gordonās post a few days back re Blue or White Iād been meaning to give this one some wrist time. Well, here it is. Some of you will recall me saying this before, but the CB and the 5711 are probably the two watches that best suit my wrist. And both...
Yes, the bezel shows sign of usage, yet nothing major like deep scratch or dents. That's attractive.
Watch collection is indeed "contradictory". On one hand we don't want to keep the watch in box as safe queen since it defeats the purpose of watch collection. On the other hand we want to keep the watch as pristine as possible...... this dilemma is probab...
Thatās a good point. To strike the balance is what we strive to do.
I would obviously be upset to have a major ding or scratch on any watch, but it can happen. I owned a Royal Oak for several years and a few years into ownership I got a big nick on the bezel, it was really annoying. But I wore that watch a lot and so it w...
The āpiano dialā really is a beauty, especially in the bright daylight.
Most of us will not have many white dials in our collections so when we do have a white dial on the wrist it always looks so fresh.
Iām with you on the CB and the white 5711.
I just need to add the latter. All in due time. It does look great on your wrist. You have great taste in watches, my friend!
Thank you. All I can say is continue to hunt for that 5711.

Between the Blue and the White, I am wearing the White more often...
The silvery white dial to me, is stunning. The black outlined indices gave a very bold contrast and the colour matched date window made this a very nice package. Also just noticed that Patek officially took the White 5711 off the catelog.
Yes, the white was removed maybe last year I think.
The black accents contrast beautifully, itās a real highlight. I think the white colour also allows the grooves in the dial to be more prominent than on the blue version which also adds to the attraction. It just seems to have more depth. That said, to ha...

Hi Jay, Glad that you got in some quality wrist time with your 5711 "piano" dial !
The photos look good and the scratches tell stories of the fun times you two had together !
Thanks Gordon.
I thought we may have had several chances to GTG since SG last year, but alas no travel. Iām keeping my fingers crossed we can be in HK next year some time.
