5960 but I would put it on a black croco, I really don't like the steel bracelet
But why not the 5990 ? Such a gorgeous piece

For me I don't like the 5726 at all so I would look at either 5960 1A or as Bruno said the 5990. Of course the 5980 is a great watch as well so between those 3 all great choices.

Of the 3 options given, 5960/1a. Agree the 5990 merits serious consideration.

Of the 3...5960/1A. I was presently surprised when I saw it in person. Bracelet is not bad in the flesh just different as it is an elegant sporty watch. Basically the best of both worlds.

Out of the 3, I chose 5980. Saw the 5960/1a in metal and I think the Nautilus has an edge in terms of overall design and wrist presence. Good luck!

I love the 5726 esp. on the bracelet. It would be a great daily piece given the bracelet, complication and relative thinness. I am a big fan of the 5990; very sporty and nice presence on the wrist.

Im a HUGE fan of the 6726. Its a great piece with a useful complication. IF you wanted something bigger than a 5990 but the 5726 is just perfect IMHO. Only thing that would make it better was if it was a PC.

5960/1A although I may be biased as it was my last pickup.

5960/1a
I've owned a 5726, nice watch but not a keeper for me. The 5960/1a sings to me far more than any watch ive owned which has been fast and furious these last few months.

Thanks guys. The 5990 is indeed an interesting option but I am still on the fence. The 5980 is not as cluttered and the fact that is being discontinued might be a plus.... Mmmm.
The 5726 is gorgeous but I see it as too serious some times and the fact that the 5960 is new might get me by the hairs.... Arggggg. Ha ha ha |
