Just when thru a similar decision recently...
Hi DJE, Sorry for the late reply. I have personally gone through a similar decision recently. My final choice has very much to do with how much I'm into "retro". Short of buying a vintage, the 15202 is the only watch still in production that is still true...
I Think you are colored...
... But so what. Both watches are great - look great and have a little of the same DNA I don't have the Nautilus, but only the AP. I have had many years were I didn't like the look of the Nautilus. The big metal pieces on the side. The bracelet. But actua...
Royal Oak v Nautilus = Warship v Crustacean. (kidding!)
Hi there, I think it's a bless to be able to have such dilemma. I vote for Royal Oak simply because I think it is clear that design wise it's more successful then the nautilus, although the latter may be a little more refine. My humble opinion, no offense...

Well Dje, I think my choice is 5711 and that's why...
First, let me say I love both and it's a nice project you have here, even if sometime difficult to achieve as you said. Opinions are quite subjectives so this is just my personal point of view. I prefer the 5711 over the 15202. Why, in details: 1. I think...
No ooops Mark! This post is about.................
Timeless Watches;) All your arguments are valid but one...in my opinion;) the calibre 2121 is still the best automatic movement on the market. I love my RO 5402. Cheers Francois from Down Under
So timeless post it is
Hey François, It is true that I was only making an aesthetical comparision and didn't take efficiency or reliability into account. You're right to underline the fact that the 2121, that powered many other watches if my memory is good, is a good engine. Th...
Clearly Nicolas my friend there can be only one...
Choice that is and that is both! Cheers, ...
