Dealers seem to be getting more Nautili coming through, and even if they didn't have a 5712 they might have one of the other models which are all the same case size. This is really the only way to determine if it's right for you as everybody's wrist is a different shape. What looks small on one 6 1/2" wrist can look big on another.
Hi,
I too often wear some 44 mm watches, as Panerai, JLC, and some others...
I can tell you that on the wrist, it's just perfect, even if you use to wear big watches, admitting that nowadays, 44 watches are big watches, when you see 47mm to come...
The watch is thin, and that 's this detail that will change you more than the size, compared to Panerai or other "big" IWC...
The Naughty Lus is a quite thin watch, but that's why it's an elegant "sport" watch...
If it's difficult to try one at an AD's...I may suggestyou to try some re sellers, they may allow you to try it, before deciding.
Here are some fresh pics of mine...
PS, if you want thicker than the 5712, go on a 5980...
Best.

really like the patek 5712 but...
I am totally new to Patek and never tought i would get to it.
I really like the look of the 5712 but presently i wear only 44 mm watches(ceramic doppel), will the 5712 look small in comparison? i can not try on on so i was hoping for some information from owners.
I see it is 43mm across but the face looks small. does anyone think PP will start following trends and start making bigger models?
many thanks for any help on this.
Go try one on

trying one on
seems crazy to say but no AD here seems to carry anything but the round case models, i am aware of only one AD near me and they have a very limited range.
maybe next time I travel

Well, no problem of size with a 5712
