Here it is.
Just arrived, they fitted it to a watch I traded in and it’s perfect.
Will follow up later with more thoughts.
Initial impression, I love it. Very clean.

Enjoy it. Whats super cool with the dial is how it changes from white to silver in varying light. Really a sporty, yet elegant combination in my opinion. Beautiful and enjoy again!

Well I’ve only worn it for a couple hours now. As I think I’ve said before, for a very long time, I’ve held the white 5711 in my head sorta as THE watch to me. So my expectations for this made me a bit nervous bc I was afraid of it not living up to that hype and feeling a bit underwhelming.
I’m glad to say, it exceeded my expectations. I’m also used to large watches and was afraid this would feel small but I love the size, it fits me perfectly.
The bracelet and case and dial flow so well together and look 10/10 to my eye.
I tend to like simpler, cleaner dials and this watch is a perfect example. Yes I’d trade it for a 5740 but that’s it.
Have a 5164r coming that I think will complement it very well.
And as I always say, after that- I will be done. Haha

congrats! the proportions of this watch are perfect, especially the slimness of the watch case is very appealing

Sure is!

Mine hasn't left my wrist since I got it, amazing how the dial appears more white in pictures, but more silver in person to me

Curiously I was initially debating between the blue and white dials, but I'm not sure I would have been as head over heels with the blue versus the white. I think it pops more, even though ironically I flipped my white dial SS Daytona for black
