Tough to choose here Bill. Since you already have several Nautilus models, maybe the 5712R but if it was only 1 Nautilus, then the 5711 on bracelet for sure....
One of the many reasons why I always say BOTH if possible 😜🙊🙉🙈
Match up 5712r vs 5711r
Just to be clear this match up is between the complications vs the bracelet. How can the complications not win. The beauty vs the beast. What are your thoughts. ...
Normally I’d be inclined to pick the more technically interesting of the two
But in my opinion, the bracelet is so much a part of the nautilus that I’d have to stick with the regular 5711.
Less is more, and 'mhz vph' perfectly summarised it.
beside, gold keeps skyrocketing ;-)
Both great pieces, but the 5711r is one of my grails. I would choose it over the 5712 every day and twice on Sunday.😁
Lucky you to have both. Such a stellar collection, Bill!👍🥂
5711 for me
The dial of the 5712 is a tad too cluttered, the way the complications are located doesn't feel right.
Both amazing choice for sure Bill. You already have a lot of great watch and I think some packet with bracelet … so I understand your interest for the complication…but…
For me here I would pick the bracelet with the simpler dial. Very personal choice, I am just not sure about the dial layout of the complication one…
Hi Bill, the 5712 complications give me
complicated feelings 🤪 Complicated in that the dial is asymmetrical in a way which has certain symmetry (if you draw ✍️ a line between 1 and 7 o’clock). Furthermore, the power reserve functions is useful while the moon 🌝 phase is romantic, but the strap i...
I like the cleaner 5711 dial.
For the steel version, I’d prefer the bracelet. The best part is that it’s so comfortable and light that you don’t known it’s there. For the rose version 5711, i wish Patek would create a strap option. With the right end links, you could swap to a rubber ...
The Strap Version was first
When the 5711 was refreshed in 2006 there was a Rose, Yellow and White gold 5711s on straps. ...
5711-1R
The 5711-1R would be my choice. Everyday any day and I will say 3 times on Sunday. It is a special watch (full disclosure I am biased), but it is special. The warm tones of gold and the rich clean choclate dial. Yummy. I prefer it over it's steel brother ...
Needs Leather
The 5712 would look more formidable on the Alligator strap. The composite doesn't work IMO as one would undoubtedly have other watches to wear if water was a question.
5711 all the way…
As other said the bracelet is an important part of the design and the simple dial is a more beautiful and powerful design. For me, the Nautilus is about an unusual sculptural design. Quirky even…. not about complications
