I would pat ex the 5167 & the 5726.

As you don't like the 5167 anymore, then no sweat and as you would get an AC in the 5960 then you haven't lost a complication but actually gained one plus a precious metal watch.

Sell 2 u don't luv & trade up for the 1 u do.

You don't really have a traditional dress watch...maybe flip the aquanaut for a white gold calatrava with white face (or even a 5196p)

Nice collection!

I am open to some other radical ideas too so lets hear em!

First move all the ones you don't like or wear as much toward the 5960P blue dial you really like. Then how about adding a 5990 for your bracelet watch giving you a dual time complication?

Hi All,
Some serious food for thought here, and my mind has changed many times since posting. Thank you for all the replies and ideas.
The 5960P seems to come at such a premium, but the blue is my grail and still keeps calling...
At the moment best seems to be to trade the 5726 and 5167 for it, won't miss the Aquanaut but will miss the Nautilus AC.
Decisions must be made so that peaceful sleep can return

A nice collection so far. Go for the 5960P blue dial if that is what you like. I assume you have seen the watch in person. It is a fairly hefty watch, meaning a bit thick. The 5960P blue dial was released at Basel 2010 and produced for 3 years before being discontinued at the end of 2013 along with other 5960P references. Prices went up a couple of times between when it was first released and when it was discontinued, so I would recommend buying it at the "right" price. Good luck and enjoy your new watch!

Very nice collection

Snow-Dweller · 13 January 2015, 05:04 AM

Great collection. I'm curious.....what don't you like about the Aquanaut?

hrm · 18 January 2015, 01:21 PM

Beautiful collection.

+1 with Mike
keep the 5726 & 5712
trade the 5205 & 5167 for 5960P (blue/black/grey, they are all awesome

)
then you won't miss the Nautilus AC
instead you get a very beautiful chrono to broaden your fantastic collection

Great collection

stockjock1975 · 19 January 2015, 01:24 AM

I would agree with the 5960P suggestion. I really feel you need to have a platinum piece in the collection and the 5960 model is one of the best!
