Which 3 would you pick? Which one would go out to pasture?

5170p
3940p
5711/1r
5712/1a

Rationale always welcomed. [emoji120][emoji120]










5170 doesn’t make it.

5711 is a classic - I’m not the biggest fan in SS as it becomes a little ‘meh’ for my liking. But in gold, it’s striking, and probably the only yellow gold watch I would buy.

The 5712 is the most beautiful watch I’ve ever seen. I nearly bought one, but went 5990 instead as it’s more ‘me’ than the 5712, but it’s an incredible watch and I still want to add one.

The 3940 is not my kind of watch and at first glance, it doesn’t make it. But...it has a perpetual calendar and that means it’s a winner.
