Blue combos

Which do you all think is a better blue combo to have if you could choose either (keeping in mind cost difference)

5711 and 5712

Or

5711 and AP 15202

That would be my choice, otherwise I'd go PP/AP.

You could roll with any PP and AP blue combo and be very happy...

I would roll towards 5980 and 15202

I am going with 5712 and 5711, did think about the 15202, decided not to because as much as the watch is gorgeous, I like the 5711 more

I had 5167 / 15202 / and 5711 simultaneously - only 5711 remains.

I like choice C that trfers created - 15202 and 5712 as the 5712 adds complications

5712 and 15202 - the 5711 and 202 are the same fish with different scales IMHO.

I immensely enjoyed this combo. The Jumbo has more wrist time though.

From your list, My vote for one AP and one PP.
But I might do two PP if there were other options not so close in design.
I might do a white 5711 and the blue 5712, but not two blue.

I'd go 5712 and 15202. 5711 only in gold for me.

I was in a similar conflict. I ended up with a grey dial 5726/1A and a 5712R, so I ended up adding the 15202. If I had it to do all over, I might have gone with a SS 5712 and been done with it. IMHO, the Nautilus bracelet is much more comfortable than the Jumbo. And, now that I've seen the Nautilus in blue, it's a hard choice. Another reason I went the way I did was I contemplated making some changes and getting the unicorn, 5711P. Now that blue dial is unreal!
