Hi 👋 All, another lurker friend and I had a “Nauti” GTG for the “naughty” brothers ! Which ...
do you preferred and why ? Please do not say both, which is my answer and mine alone to use ! 🤣 ...
How about NETHER?!? Haha
Imagine this on the 5711 Of course I jest...both are AWESOME! ...
Definitely on Green
I hope the Khaki green will be the new color after the white is retired this year. Will be AMAZING!!
Only on secondary markets 🤣
Khaki green dial on 5711? May blow up the secondary markets if produced. Will be most sought after reference in my opinion... of course, priced msrp same as 5711 blue
I very much like the blue one but would not want the white 5711. The white one lacks the sharp contrast between dial and case ...
... that is key for the Nautilus design to shine and for the watch to look interesting in my eyes. Not against white dial watches in general but my 5711 has got to be blue which it is.
thanks for your comments ! Interesting that others wrote back and said ...
white dial has better details. Guess I have to ask lurker to show me his 5711 white and do a detailed comparison !
The blue.
More subtle. More nautical. More original. Wish it came with a matching date disc. Cheers, John
White (aka piano dial), for sure.
The dial is way more dynamic (although this may not be perceived in pictures). Loads of ivory and silver hues. The date on the same color as the dial isn’t bad either! With all due respect, most people who allegedly don’t like the white either can’t cope ...
The white “piano dial” is at the top of my want list.
Specifically with the updated 26-330 S C movement. I’m being patient and waiting until hopefully the current fever subsides somewhat and I can find one at a more palatable price.🤞
Gordon, the white was my choice, so it will be so here too.
For me, the white dial is just more interesting. It brings more to the watch I think. There is also the little sin of contrasting date wheel colour, it is always a no no for me (unless it’s a datograph).
Your thinking is much appreciated ! Please share...
more photos of of your piano dial !
Neat pair, I'm in the wait list of my ad for the blue. But the white is also nice. Though I heard its discontinued.
The white gets my vote but the blue is not far behind. Thanks for sharing my friend. 😎 Geross.
Hi geross, Hope you get your blue soon !
Then eventually for you to get the white as well to have the perfect duo !
Blue 5711
Simple for me. Nautilus is related to sea, sea is blue (actually green blue with WHITE foam haha)
First I bought the blue, then the white dial this year..
Must say the white has a certain allure.. Especially for the fact the blue of the 5740 is incomparable.. White gets my vote !
Thanks Centurionone for your comments ! Please show photos of these
three watches together !
Hi Gordon!
Here is the comparison of the two blues as requested.. I don't think it would be fair to place the white dial next to these two ...
Tough pick Gordon but having both is the easy solution as you stated. I actually prefer the white "piano" dial as I prefer the contrast and wear it more often than the blue 🤷♂️
If I choose a blue dial watch on bracelet I tend to go with my AP 15202ST which I also prefer more than the 5711/1A in blue or white 🤷♂️. As the french like to say, "chacun a son goût" 😉
I absolutely love the white one
Shame it is discontinued and the secondary price is, imo, silly. Enjoy your pieces!
thanks for your interesting observations !
I never thought about these details previously.
I LOVE the white one
Firstly because I'm a sucker for white dials. But also because of the black boarders make an amazing contrast that looks so modern, despite it being a discontinued model. My favourite Nautilus
Oh unfortunately I don't have it.
Though following your post, I went on C24 to check the market price, and i was surprised to see that it is in line or even below the price of the blue dial. The reason i was surprised is because I had the impression that with it being discontinued the pri...
The white dial 5711
is also significantly rarer (probably by a factor of 2.0-2.5). The dark 5711 has been produced since 2006... And still counting... The white 5711 from 2012 to 2019.
Hi, Gordon, I prefer the blue dial as the combination of sunray and gradient colour change is more unique. Besides, blue colour has been my preference all along.
Though the white piano dial is also a strong contender and I won't mind to have it as well. Best, Henry
Hi Henry, thanks for your comments and good luck in...
getting your white dial soon !
I hope I can get the blue dial 5711 first. Just have two nautiluses: 5712/1A (acquired back in 2012) and 5740/1G.
My AD said it is difficult for me to go back to get the 5711...…...
Hi Henry, having the 5712 and 5740 is quite an achievement ! Adding the 5711 blue will be...
icing on top and thereafter getting the the 5711 while will make them a dream quartet ! Have fun in your journey !
blue dial for its ability to blend in any dress code...
White dial only bcos of the matching date window color scheme. Lovely pair to own but blue is invincible ! Best, Mahesh.,
Hi Riddler, what is the answer that solves the riddle of why...
you prefer the white dial ?
To me it looks much better and more sporty and casual
Plus it’s more rare , there is something about the dial reflection under light from silver to white , simply beautiful
i prefer the white
between the 2, I wear the white more often. I like the clarity and it jumps out. it is also rarer and discontinued.
Thanks benzng for your feedback as an owner to this...
terrific duo ! Please also give more wrist time to the blue ! 😇
Hey Gordon,
I liked the white since it was launched. But when my turn came, I picked the blue thinking it was the seminal version, my silly little head filled with all the legend and lore around the creation of this model. Well, later there was an opportunity to swop...
Thanks ScroogeM for your kind feedback ! Yes, it must ...
sing to you no matter how popluar a watch is !
