Congratulations...these are 2 amazing watches. Was there an option to keep the 5712 and dato?
That dato movement is mind blowing |

I love it! I prefer the 5711 to the 5712, so I think you did well

perhaps.
ultimately, however, down the line whether i had the 11 or 12, acquiring the 11R would've required letting the other nautilus go. unless i didn't have the datograph - but now that i have it, i'm SO glad i was lucky enough to grab it, i'm just in awe. so in that scenario of now having the dato, even if i kept the 12 it would've had to go if i had had the oppty to grab an 11R. and having the 11 now gives me not only, imo, a better position to swap it out later for the R...but, frankly, having TWO iconic pieces such as a dato and a steel 5711, i think, is a worthy/better combo. |

Mitchell - even if the 5711R does edge out the 5711A in the looks department slightly. The 5711-1A is infinitely more wearable. I've owned all 3 5711s and for me its:
5711 Blue > 5711 Rose > 5711 White. |
