5711 look nice and easy.
However, its simplicity of the dial makes 5711 less attractive when compare to the dial of 5712...more complicated, less balance, but very attractive.
That's my opinion only on 5711/1A (stainless steel). In contrary, the 5711R gives me different look due mainly to the rose gold case, fantastic dial and hands, and leather strap.
My bottom line is I prefer 5712/1A to 5711/1A but I feel very comfortable to pick the formal and dressy 5711R too.
Cheers
honest opinions about 5711 (pro's/con's)
most know me for being very anal when looking into details/etc.. curious to those that have had the chance to fondle a 5711.. what your opinions were... meing being an audemars person first and foremost i immediately relate it to the royal oak date (not o...
many commun points with the royal oak...
... beside the hands and the brushing of the case, the main common point is how genta succeeded in doing a timeless design. Main problem of the 5711 is that the 5712 looks so much nicer, makes the 5711 looks dry and boring. If we want to be picky, the ear...
5711 more comfortable
While they look similar, 5711 wears more comfortably than 15300. 15300 however has a better looking movement. Both great watches to have but there is a significant price difference to consider....
You asked to be blunt...
Please do not understand my answer to be offensive - I just want to be honest as you asked for! I would not buy a Nautilus at all - IMHO these sports watches are not real Pateks - they are just attempts to cover the sports watches segment in the market. W...
Took courage to say that, but you are spot on
Nautilus and Aquanaut are a feeble attempt at a sports watch, totally not in keeping with what made PP famous. As such, there are more of a beginners Patek for a fickle collector market that is getting bludgeoned vlauewise as of late. If you must get a Na...
I have a 5711/1A
as displayed in "docbchan's" e-mail above. In fact, I sold the very same AP in that e-mail and then purchased the 5711. I found the AP RO to be rather uncomfortable while the 5711 to the contrary is quite comfortable. It doesn't matter how beautiful a wat...
Ok buddy I will be very blunt
The 5711 will keep you excited from the moment you walk into tilted Kilt, until our cute little waitress brings your third sprite, then you will tell me how boring the watch is and the search will be on again. Face it Riley, you are Mr. catch and release....
Simple & pure
that´s why I really like the Ref. 5711 and love the Ref. 3700. 3712 & 5712 - the dial is just to busy for me. The cal. 240 is great, but I would prefer it in another watch. Anyway, I love this kind of subjective "discussions". LOL Oliver
