5711r vs RG YM OF

Thinking about my next acquisition, and want it to be a rose gold sports watch. I don’t really dress up too much and typically am a white metal guy.

Price and availability not withstanding, curious on your opinions on the 5711r vs the yachtmaster RG on OF (126655). I love the thinness and fit-like-a-glove feel of the 5711 as well as that dial, but also love the sportiness and rubber strap of the YM paired w the matte black ceramic bezel. Additionally, was wondering how subtle or not so subtle the all RG bracelet is of the 5711.

This would be worn in a rotation, not as a daily. Examples of some in my collection are 5712a (probably my favorite ever), 5167a, and several SS Rolex (eg subC, BLNR, white DaytonaC).

If anyone owns both or was deciding between these two, would especially love to hear from you.

Thx in advance.
